  • Alain Schlesser, David Mosterd: Dependency Injection and Design Patterns in Real Life

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speakers: Alain Schlesser, David Mosterd

    August 7, 2018 — You know a lot of pattern buzzwords and OOP syntax, but fail to get actual benefits out of their practical use? You’ve read about principles and best practices but cannot apply them to your daily problems? We’ll work on a simple WordPress plugin to discuss fundamental principles like dependency injection and discover useful design patterns that solve real pain points in your development work. We’ll combine these techniques to give you strategies to better deal with ever-changing requirements.

    This workshop assumes solid knowledge of PHP and basic knowledge about classes and objects, how the PHP OOP syntax works and what the notions of polymorphism, encapsulation and inheritance mean.

  • Lara Schenck: Let’s Build a Gutenberg Block

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speaker: Lara Schenck

    August 7, 2018 — With the introduction of Gutenberg in WordPress 5.0, the themes and plugins of the future will revolve around this notion of ‘blocks’. But what is a block? Maybe you’ve heard you can create your own blocks…but where and how does one actually do that? Are blocks written in PHP? Are they JavaScript? Both? Do you need to know React to create a block?

    In this workshop, we will take a deep-dive into the anatomy of a block, answering the aforementioned questions and more. After a high-level discussion of blocks and how they function, we will get hands-on, creating blocks of our own within a set of demo files that can function as a starting point for your own projects.

  • yousan: 中規模案件のこなしかた DockerとCI、テスト

    WordCamp Osaka 2018Speaker: yousan

    August 6, 2018 — WordPress案件をこなす際の開発ワークフロー、特にDockerをつかったローカル開発環境とCircleCIでDocker設定ファイルを使ったテストについてのお話しです。
    チーム開発での分業では、異なる領域を複数人で担当するか(垂直分業)、同じ領域を複数人で担当するか(水平分業)、があります。
    小さい案件をこなしていたチームではディレクション担当、コーディング担当、プログラム担当といった垂直分業がメインであり、衝突することはありませんでした。
    しかし規模が大きくなるにつれコーディング、プログラミングの人員投入数を増やす必要があり水平分業を行いましたが、コードレベルや設計レベルでの衝突が多くなりました。
    水平分業を行った際に僕たちが直面した衝突の問題点や解決方法、今後の方針についてのお話しをさせてもらえればと思います。
    WordPress制作業者さんはコーディングをメインにされている方、業者さんが多いと感じています。そういった方々にとってのCIやDocker環境はハードルが高く感じることが多いですが、取り組んでもらうための動機づけになればと思っています。

    「ローカル環境での再現性(冪等性)」「開発サーバ、ステージングサーバの必要性」、「ファイル作成ルール化」「コーディング規約の導入」といった仕組みづくりについてです。

    WordCamp Europe 2018Speakers: Rian Rietveld, Sami Keijonen

    August 6, 2018 — People use different ways to interact with the web. Users navigate for example with a keyboard only or with their voice. To make this work properly, it ‘s necessary that the design, code and content is properly set up, accessible for all devices and users. How do you test the accessibility of a design, code and content of a web project? What are the guidelines to test against?

    We will go through the different ways to use the web, which guidelines to use, what to look out for when checking for accessibility errors and which checks and tools you can use to help you test. We will also discuss a setup for automated testing. Bring your laptop and join in.
