    JSON-Based Component Rendering Proof-of-concept

    I think this is a key component of the future of WordPress, since doing it this way would enable any future admin UI to work natively in an iOS application as well as a web application. You would still have two apps, but everything that actually renders the output is based on the JSON, and therefore can be extended easily.

    I Created a Free Dockerized WordPress Dev Setup For Integration Testing

    I’ve really struggled over the years to find a good local WordPress setup, and I think I finally have something that I love.

    Pitch – JSON Approach For the Fields API

    I started working on a very rough PoC earlier this week, and it helped me form an opinion on how I think the fields API could work. I think there’s some pretty good ideas here that would allow us to implement the fields API without disrupting WordPress backcompat.
