Session Description:
Shuffling along with the same old web interface? Moaning about how slow it loads? Watching your audience rot away yearning for features you just can't implement in PHP? Fight those zombie interfaces with the faithful Wordpress baseball bat back end and a double barreled shotgun of JavaScript. We'll take a look at the WordPress REST API and how you can use it to power websites, mobile apps and one day maybe even your fridge.
