A Day of REST
Brought to you by the organisers of WordCamp London and WordCamp Europe, A Day of REST is an event dedicated to the WordPress REST API. Nine speakers from the REST API development team and top companies that utilise the API will share their knowledge with you.
The WordPress REST API is the next generation of WordPress, opening the platform up in brand new ways. It will get officially merged into core in WordPress 4.4 on December 8th.
Companies like WIRED, The New York Times, Fusion, Bocoup, Human Made, Modern Tribe and many others already use the WordPress REST API to build applications that retrieve information from WordPress, without touching a line of PHP.
Find out about the possibilities of the WordPress REST API from the people making it, and from the people using it. Come to A Day of REST on January 28th, 2016.
