Miriam says that when she started with WordPress, it was a shiny, exciting product with endless functionality. But, as the years wore on, WordPress started to lose its lustre. The future of WordPress overall was in question.
She believes we are now seeing the beginning of a WordPress renaissance. JavaScript, headless, and JAMstack are making developers excited once again. This is a very promising shift for our community since products can live or die by the enthusiasm (or lack thereof) of developers. In this talk, Miriam will discuss what this evolution means for WordPress the platform, and the steps we can take to support and encourage this momentum, and ensure the future of our favorite CMS for many years to come.
