October 1, 2023 — As the digital landscape shifts, WordPress must evolve to stay ahead and remain a leader in website development. For 20 years, it has consistently demonstrated its commitment to growth and innovation. With the introduction of Gutenberg and the block editor, WordPress has undergone a revolution in website building, empowering users to create sites more efficiently than ever.

The introduction of blocks in WordPress has not only transformed the content creation process but also simplified the development process by breaking down complex elements into manageable and intuitive building blocks.

In this workshop, we’ll dive into the world of interactive block development and explore the Interactivity API proposal, which aims to enhance the capabilities of interactive blocks in WordPress. Participants will learn hands-on, step-by-step techniques to combine different blocks and implement the Interactivity API to create engaging user experiences and bring their website designs to life. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, this workshop will equip you with the skills and knowledge to take your WordPress website to the next level.

So, join us and discover the power of building interactive blocks in WordPress with the Interactivity API!

June 21, 2020 — Headless CMS architecture is gaining a lot of traction in the CMS ecosystem. WordPress has the potential to become the best headless solution in the market but, although it’s already a nice option, not all the challenges have been solved yet.
In this talk, Luis will walk through all of the available frameworks and explain what can be achieved with each of them. He will compare all the important aspects (SEO, performance, plugin compatibility, DX, UX…) with the PHP themes and the upcoming block-based templates. Finally, once the current status is clear, he will explore the remaining challenges we still need work on to be able to match, or even surpass, the sweet WordPress experience we know and love.

May 8, 2018 — Estamos en 2018. Los coches aún no vuelan pero los smartphones son imparables. El 80% de la gente accede a la web usando un móvil. Pronto llegaremos al 90%. La web está adaptándose a la nueva era y WordPress debe seguirle el ritmo para no quedarse atrás.

En esta charla Luis explora el cambio que está sufriendo la web y cuáles son las oportunidades de WordPress para adaptarse con ella. Las técnicas de hace una década están obsoletas y abren paso a nuevas experiencias, tanto para la gente que construimos la web como para la gente que la consume. Estamos dejando de hacer Webs usando PHP y empezando a construir WebApps usando JavaScript. O mejor dicho, Progressive Web Apps.
