November 14, 2019 — Many WordCamps do not have contributor days or hackathons… many organizers hold back thinking they can’t provide a “good enough” experience or maybe their local community isn’t “developer focused.” There are also camps that have done these in the past and want to learn more ways to improve the experience for future events.

There are also contributor day / hackathons that don’t involve WordCamps (language transition day, WordPress.tv captioning, etc.). Explore the potential for local or online single-day events that cover the space between a regular meetup and an annual WordCamp.

August 16, 2018 — Did you know? WordPress is changing!

As we speak WordPress is going through one of the biggest technological revolutions in its existence. The editing screen is being replaced by a brand new JavaScript-based editor. The project to make this all happen is named Gutenberg, after Johannes Gutenberg; the inventor of the printing press. This tells you something about the ambitions behind this project.

In this talk I’ll give a demo of the new editor, explain what’s about to change and reflect on the opportunities and risks this entails. After this talk, you will have a better understanding of… – how the process of content creation in WordPress is going to change. – what could break if you have plugins installed which add functionality to the post edit screen. – the potential (business) opportunities related to the big changes that are coming.
