Building Web Apps with WordPress: WordPress as an Application Framework, Second Edition

Quote from the foreword: "When ... you’ve read the words ... you will know that there’s only one kind of developer: the kind that can build anything they can imagine, and you’re that kind of developer."Pure marketing - nothing of the sort. Messenlehner and Coleman remain on the surface. The link to the alleged resources on GitHub leads nowhere. Much is hinted at, nothing is really discussed in depth. Possibly useful for developers who have already explored the terrain in detail. The newcomer is left out in the cold.

Il libro, in lingua inglese, è uno strumento ideale per i professionisti che già hanno una buona conoscenza delle logiche di programmazione con Wordpress. È una lettura abbastanza tecnica e presuppone di avere un livello di programmazione con Wordpress medio-alto.Non è adatto per chi è alle prime armi con Wordpress e vuole imparare a programmare.

I gave this 5 instead of 4 stars because I think the 1 star reviews are uncalled for. It was a good overview over the various WP parts and a reassurance that I am not missing out on some super useful WP feature or function that I didn't know about. I will surely scan through the book a couple more times.The concept of using WP for big apps, too, sounds paragmatic and smart to me. A huge plus of WP even for experienced devs is the vast amount of docs and code bits readily avalable online at places like stackoverflow. No other CMS that I know of comes even close.

Es interesante conocer cómo manipular y programar Wordpress, pensar en el cómo framework.
