  • From Static to Dynamic: Mastering the Interactivity API

    WordCamp Sofia 2025Speaker: Ryan Welcher

    February 14, 2026 — With the arrival of the **Interactivity API**, WordPress now offers a native, declarative way to add client-side behavior to blocks using directives like `data-wp-on–click`, `data-wp-bind`, and `data-wp-context`.

    In this developer-focused talk, we’ll explore:

    – The architecture and goals of the Interactivity API
    – How to mark blocks as interactive with `supports.interactivity`
    – How to use directives to handle clicks, toggle classes, bind data, loop over arrays, and more
    – How to define a store to manage shared state, actions, and side effects
    – Real-world examples including:
    – Button toggles and UI state
    – Gallery sliders using Core Image blocks
    – Query Loop filtering and SPA-style navigation—without a full page reload
