Attended An introduction to the WP REST API | WordCamp Orange County 2019

Watched An introduction to the WP REST API by John Hawkins from WordCamp Orange County 2019

In this presentation, I’m going to give a brief introduction to the WP REST API, how to create custom end points, and some tools you can use to test your API as you’re developing it!

Great overview presentation, but a tad on the elementary side for me. John generally does a very solid job, but here I think he spent too much time on talking about other ways of doing things as a means of motivating why to use the REST API instead of talking about the REST API itself.

I did get the chance to meet a great programmer and developer named Beth who was previously in the area of instructional design.
