In the world of web development, we’ve all encountered projects that resemble a patchwork of hacks, held together by digital duct tape. This often stems from the misleading notion that building a “simple website” will suffice. Developers resort to creating template pages under the assumptions that “the design won’t change over time” and “building reusable blocks is too costly.” The result? A labyrinth of spaghetti code that becomes a maintenance nightmare. But what if I told you there’s a better way?

In this presentation, I will delve into:
– Utilizing Timber and Bedrock for a clean project architecture while crafting custom themes
– Adopting an Object-Oriented approach for effective project decomposition
– Understanding the impact of clean design on website page speed
– Implementing a robust Quality Assurance process and the critical role of automation (CI/CD)

This talk draws upon years of hands-on experience at Osom Studio, where we’ve honed our approach to WordPress development. We’ve even channeled our insights into an open-source project, Juniper.
