While our website agency is always exhilarated by new client projects and the addition of team members, the virtual hallways of WebDevStudios (WDS) are also filled with holiday cheer. Plus, as the year comes to an end, we are looking back at our accomplishments and changes with a sense of gratitude.
In November, WDS kept busy, focusing on big website projects for big brands, while also giving back to WordPress via Five for the Future. Here are some other activities our teammates were involved with.
WordCamp San José, Costa Rica
WordCamp San José (WCSJ) took place November 5-6, 2022 in Costa Rica. WDS Senior Frontend Engineer, Alfredo Navas, was there. Alfredo presented a talk titled, “Full Site Editing – Temas Badados en Bloques, Patrones Y El Theme.JSON.”
This talk addressed the transition of WordPress development to a no-code solution with block-based themes, pattern creation, and full-site editing. For more on this in-person WordCamp event, read Green Geek’s recap.
WordCamp Asia 2023
Happening in February of next year, WordCamp Asia is sold out! As the first flagship WordCamp in Asia, this event is bringing true value to the community.
WDS Backend Engineer, Lax Mariappan, took time to chat with Go with WP. about the importance of WordCamp Asia and WordPress technology. Watch the video below.
