Give back to Core

Be True to You, Not Me (Keynote)

The question most people ask me is how to be me. But that isn’t really what you want to know. Your power to give back to WordPress is unique, and I can help show you the way. Don’t be me. Be you.

Mika’s presentation slides can be found on her site.

Closing Remarks

Phew, we made it to the end of the first day of WordCamp St. Louis! We’d like to highlight a few superstars and remind folks of what the heck is happening on Sunday.

Then, on to the afterparty with a few pointers on travel/parking and where to go once you reach the City Museum.

WordPress Rest API (Advanced)

Find out what the upcoming WordPress REST API is and why you should be using it. Come and be convinced that when this is added to core it will expand WordPress’ mission of democratizing publishing by democratizing content. Perhaps most importantly learn what JRR Tolkien had to say about using REST over XML-RPC.
