March 8, 2018 — “Vloggen is RAARRR. Daar ben ik afgelopen zomer achtergekomen. Ik dacht dat het een kleine stap was, van blog naar ‘video-log’ … maar het bracht me in een compleet nieuwe wereld. Een wereld waarin ik aan het filmen was voor een publiek waarvan ik niet wist of het er eigenlijk wel was.
Ik stapte op mijn bakfiets om Noord-Nederland te befietsen. In die bakfiets sliep ik ook. Ik noemde hem daarom: ‘de Rijdende Bedstede’. En ik dacht: ‘Ik fiets de vrijheid tegemoet!’ Maar… Vrijheid en vloggen? Dat gaat niet samen.”

March 8, 2018 — Many of us work primarily in this first realm: with themes and plugins, and may not have been closely tracking all of the details of the REST API’s rollout. Other of us (me included) have found the years-long rollout to be complicated to track and summarize.

Whatever your motivation, if you seek a gently-technical intro to the REST API in about a half-hour, this session is for you. We will cover three broad areas:

– what is the REST API, and how does it work?

some basic commands that’ll help you get around, and
a glimpse of some more advanced commands that can be handy to have in your toolbox.

Note: Sorry, but this will be based on Mac/Unix. Windows has some exceptions that won’t be covered.
