In this session you will learn practices for building a WordPress site using Git for version control. We will explore two scenarios: downloading/updating code manually using WP-CLI vs delegating package management to Composer. In addition to explaining how to include plugins and themes from the public https://wordpress.org repository, we will also discuss how to add premium extensions and private repositories. Finally, we will provide suggestions for deploying your WordPress site, setting up continuous integration/delivery (CI/CD) workflows, and integrating with hosting providers.
