What happened last week - issue #39
This week: WordCamp, Headless, Statamic and more
What happened last week
I spent the weekend at WordCamp Gliwice. It was really amazing to meet everyone once again. I also had a chance to talk about “Is it worth going headless,” and I did a workshop about connecting WordPress and Astro.
I was a bit stressed, but I’m really happy with the results.
On the other hand, I just got my dream bike. Next week you can suspect some photos of it.

Wix just released their headless SDK. I’m not the biggest fan of Wix, but this is quite interesting. Also, it’s a very logical move, and I think more and more services will add more robust headless tools.
