Workshop instructor – Ziad Saab (http://wpmtl.org/blog/2017/10/25/theming-with-wp-api-and-react/#ziad)

In this workshop, we will use the WordPress API to create a blog where WordPress is acting only as a CMS. The blog will be rendered by a universal web server written with React and NodeJS, and the data will come from the WordPress API.

This workshop is suitable for:
To fully benefit from this workshop, some familiarity with React/Redux and NodeJS/Express is recommended. We will assume that you have already worked on a React-based app, and that you have written some code against NodeJS/Express. On the other hand, no knowledge of PHP is required.

Additional Information:
We will install any and all software needed during the workshop.

You must bring your laptop.

The workshop instruction will be in English but there will be bilingual TAs and questions are welcome in French or English.
