  • Nathan Kuik: Going with the Flow: Increasing Mindfulness and Flow Experiences to Fight Burnout and Depression

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speaker: Nathan Kuik

    August 13, 2018 — As problem solvers, we take pride in diagnosing problems, breaking them down into actionable tasks, completing TODOs, and closing tickets. A common assumption in this rational workflow that emotions and feelings are a hindrance and should be actively minimised. However, research tells us the costs of ignoring emotions are great.

    Active stewardship of our health makes us better employees, managers, parents, and partners. Pressures in life and work make it hard to maintain balance, even if we know the signs of burnout and depression. Workshop attendees will learn how to bring more focus to the present moment, improve overall well-being, and increase buy-in for supporting emotional health.

  • You, yes you, need to sketch!

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speaker: Joshua Wold

    August 13, 2018 — It doesn’t matter who you are, give sketching a try. I’ve used quick sketches to bridge the communication gap between what our clients want to create, and what our developers can build. If you spend 10 minutes on a sketch to describe how an interface will work, you can then share it with your team and validate whether everyone is on the right page. Even if you’re wrong, you’ve got a starting point.

    This workshop is for folks making websites for a living. We walk through previous development problems that I’ve used sketching on, and then work on live examples together.

  • Carl Alexander, Giuseppe Mazzapica, Thorsten Frommen: An Introduction to Unit Testing (for WordPress)

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speakers: Carl Alexander, Giuseppe Mazzapica, Thorsten Frommen

    August 13, 2018 — This is a development-specific workshop, so you should have an idea about coding in general. Besides that, the workshop itself does not require any specific skill or knowledge.

    We’ve all had these “Wait, what? That worked the other day!” moments. They usually happen after we introduced a new feature but broke existing functionality in the process. This is why we often don’t feel confident that our code is working as expected. When developing plugins—or whole websites—this is important, though. Clients expect that making changes won’t break their sites. But can we be sure of that?

    There is a solution for that, and it’s called Unit Testing! During this hands-on workshop, we’ll help you understand what testable code is and how to write unit tests for it. Armed with this knowledge, you’ll be able to prevent these embarrassing moments from ever happening again.

  • Krešimir Končić: Lifecycle of a WordPress project

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speaker: Krešimir Končić

    August 13, 2018 — WordPress is promoted as a tool to easily publish content, but on the other hand, development of these WordPress projects is a different and complicated story. We will handle the touch points of each project at the workshop – clients, designs, bugs, deadlines, customer support, etc. – and determine which factors affect the deliverable of a typical WP project. We will put a special emphasis on business risk mitigation with WordPress project (not getting your money, breaking deadlines, adjusting budgets, making proper estimates, etc.). Workshop will process the three major phases of each WordPress project: planning and preparation, project implementation, support after launch.
