Developer Hours: Exploring the Interactivity API in WordPress 6.5

WordPress 6.5 is launching the Interactivity API, a standardized feature set for building interactive front-end experiences, such as lightboxes, sliders, and more.

After a couple of years of exploring, designing, and implementing it, the Interactivity API will be officially opened to developers to build on top of. This is a significant milestone that will enable the creation of seamless, dynamic interactions that are readily accessible for all WordPress developers. And it's all possible through an experience that is familiar and compatible with the block ecosystem.

We will examine the API's surface and demonstrate its full potential with some detailed examples. And we will also explore ideas we have for future iterations. Afterward, there will be a Q&A session, so bring your questions!
