Borek Bernard – Git in 10 minutes<\/h2>\n

If you know you should be using version control for your WordPress projects but haven’t started yet then “Git in 10 minutes<\/a>” is for you. Borek<\/a>, a developer on\u00a0VersionPress who is passionate about proper tooling, will show you that Git is not scary and that you can actually get started in under 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

Otto Kek\u00e4l\u00e4inen – Improving WordPress performance with XDebug and PHP profiling<\/h2>\n

As a software developer and the CEO of Seravo Oy, Otto<\/a> has valuable insight into both the technical and business needs of a web project. At WordCamp Europe, he will discuss “Improving WordPress performance with XDebug and PHP profiling<\/a>.” He’ll explain how to use XDebug with Webgrind, how to find potential optimisation targets, show examples of real cases when XDebug helped fix a performance problem and also explain what XDebug is not suitable for and what can be used instead. If you are not a developer, you\u2019ll learn what XDebug is capable of and when to ask a developer to use it.<\/p>\n

Oleksandr Strikha – Web Fonts Performance<\/h2>\n

Oleksandr<\/a> is a technical leader of WordPress projects who has designed and led the development of some of the largest content platforms and startups within Scandinavia. Web fonts are a key factor in the speed and lightness of web applications, something which is especially important in the era of mobile devices that we live in. In “Web Font Performance<\/a>,” Oleksandr will talk about\u00a0the general problems of loading and rendering fonts in different browsers, and also tools that help solve these problems.<\/p>\n

Mark Jaquith – Security is a Process<\/h2>\n

Mark<\/a> is a Lead Developer for WordPress core and has been working on WordPress since 2004. In his talk, you will learn that “Security is a Process<\/a>” and a mindset, not merely a plugin that you install. You’ll then learn how to best protect your sites and yourself from the multitude of threats they face on the Wild Wild Web.<\/p>\n

Miriam Schwab – WordPress security for all: you won’t believe how simple it can be<\/h2>\n

In “WordPress security for all: you won’t believe how simple it can be<\/a>,” Miriam<\/a> is set to share insights that her and her team at illuminea have picked up after a decade of hosting and maintaining WordPress sites. She’ll explain\u00a0a few simple measures that site owners can take to\u00a0cover 90% of security issues. Miriam will\u00a0also provide an overview of\u00a0tools and tweaks that can harden and protect your sites even more.<\/p>\n
