WordCamp Asia

After approximately 6 years working with WordPress on a commercial level, I decided to attend the first WordCamp Asia 2023 event held in Bangkok.

Given that WordPress powers approximately 43% of the web (at the time of writing), this was a humbling experience to be around some of the greatest minds powering a large share of functionality driving internet forward.

Although i’d connected with many of the engineers over discussion forums, Twitter and the Gutenberg Repo already, it was fantastic to meet in real life after the WordCamp flagship event had been postponed the previous year.

Here were a few of my favourite sessions:

Think like a hacker: Attack your WordPress

Data-Based Decision Making for Small-Medium Web Development Teams

You’re optimizing the wrong things

Successfully Marrying Open Source and Large MarTech Stacks

Is learning React necessary for Block development?
