What happened last week
So, I going to Spain on Friday. For the next two weeks, I will be working from this amazing and sunny place.
Again, a lot of things happened:
together with Tim, we started a CMS Squad on the daily.dev (more info in links below)
I will be speaking virtually at the Warsaw IT Days tomorrow
I’m working hard on one more Astro site for Patchstack
Also, the Easter weather was amazing which meant I had to go cycling
Interesting links
I was at Open Source Day 2024 in Florence
A month ago I was at OS Day Florence and it took me a month to write a review of this amazing event. Check it out and start planning your trip next year - it’s totally worth it.
We started a CMS Squad on daily.dev
Together with Tim, we decided to start a CMS community on the daily.dev. Every CMS is welcome - come and share your knowledge.
Why I don't use WordPress Coding Standards? — Przemek Hernik
This is one of the unluckiest links I have bookmarked. First, it got on my radar minutes after publishing an issue, next I missed adding it in the previous issue. But here it is.
Przemek describes why he doesn't use WP Coding Standards. And I agree with him fully. WPCS is a coding standard that has this legacy vibe.
Exploring the Block Hooks API in WordPress 6.5 — Nick Diego
A great tutorial explaining how Block Hooks API works in WP 6.5. It really came a long way to reach how it looks right now. I think it’s one of the mechanisms that should be there from the beginning to make the whole block editor/ block theme adoption faster.
I heard so much great stuff about Laravel Herd that I was eager to try it out on Windows. Now when it's here I'm a bit disappointed with the fact that I need to pay for MySQL support. But the moment I'll get my paycheck I will give it a try.
The unofficial WP CLI docs — Enrique Chavez
I will be honest with you - I’m not a fan of WP-CLI documentation. It has this weird vibe that is hard to describe. But Enrique just solved the problem - using Tailwind UI, he gave the docs another life.
How Photoshop solved working with files larger than can fit into memory — Thomas Steiner
A very interesting problem that Adobe and Chrome developers had to solve. Those are things that in most cases we don't have to care about.
