<p>WordPress has become a passion of mine and I love to share this personal journey of how WordPress has changed my life for the better in many ways … and continues to do so. I share my story to inspire others to become more involved with the WordPress community and also to follow their dreams.</p>
<p>WordPress has taken me from a factory job that I was NOT happy in, to loving my work in an amazing company and being paid to travel the world and interact with the WordPress community.</p>
<p>This talk tells of how ‘discovering’ WordPress became a life-changing experience – how I was adopted into the WordPress community who are now like family to me, and how attending WordCamp Sydney in 2014 lead to a series of events that paved the way to me acquiring my dream job.</p>
<p>During my talk I give examples of how giving back to the WordPress community can be beneficial in many ways. Hopefully, I inspire those just embarking on their WordPress journey to follow their dreams, and encourage people by sharing how overcoming some of our fears and social anxieties can lead to amazing opportunities.</p>

<p>COPE (Create Once, Publish Everywhere) is a technique which allows to publish content across different platforms from a single source of truth, enabling to feed content to dissimilar platforms such as web, emails, or an iOS or Android app, while minimizing the amount of duplicated information and reducing maintenance to the minimum possible.</p>
<p>Through Gutenberg, WordPress splits the post content into blocks which can be handled independently, thus enabling the implementation of the COPE strategy. This makes WordPress an ideal platform for hosting the content that will be distributed to different platforms. In this talk we will take a look into a WordPress-based architecture to implement COPE, and how it works.</p>
<p>About the speaker</p>
<p>Leonardo Losoviz is an independent open source developer, creator of a framework for building modular websites called [PoP]. The only non-musician in his family, this doesn’t bother him, because coding is also making art. He lives in a loop: he dreams of code and, when he wakes up, he codes his dreams. He is based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.</p>

<p>Hazrul was the creator behind rezkii.com, a defunct woocommerce-as-a-service product. He feels WooCommerce is really painful for regular people to start a store and hosted platforms like Shopify are taking a lot from Woo’s pie. But have the industry caught up?</p>
<p>This presentation is a comparison of Managed WooCommerce Hosting (Pantheon, Nestify) and WooCommerce-as-a-service solutions (Woocart). It describes similarities and differences, and what it means to the non-techies who wish to use WooCommerce as their tech stack for their e-Commerce business.</p>
<p>And he will also make a comparison between Woocart vs Shopify vs Ecwid and discuss the similarities and differences of each platform.</p>
<p>Is Woocart the answer? Will Woocommerce ever go towards Woo-as-a-service? Perhaps there’ll be more questions than answers. Find out in this talk.</p>
<p>About the speaker</p>
<p>I’m a family man, entrepreneur, software engineer, and foodie, and have been building startups all my life. I have gone through a complete cycle of E-Commerce from training, building online and mobile e-store, building payment gateways and building a fulflllment and distribution system throughout my career.</p>

<p>Running a business with a WordPress site is relatively easy. Tens of thousands of plugins out there do help a lot, but sometimes it’s hard to find a perfectly tailored solution. Often, you do end up developing custom code for your site. Consider putting a bit extra effort and convert that custom solution into a sellable product. That can not only cover the cost of initial development and maintenance but also present another revenue stream.</p>
<p>About the speaker</p>
<p>I’m a Digital Nomad currently living in Kuala Lumpur. Co-Founder and CEO of PeepSo.com and TwistPress.com. I began my journey with Open Source about a decade ago and never regretted it. I care about creating beautiful and useful solutions for WordPress. What’s more important, solutions which are also fully supported by the very people creating them.</p>
<p>After years of hard work, I’m finally in a place where I can have myself and the company give back to the WordPress community by sponsoring WordCamps and sharing my knowledge and experience.</p>

<p>Do you struggle to find the right clients who are willing to pay what you’re worth? What if there was a way for you to turn the tide, and have the clients find you.</p>
<p>I’ll show you how to market and sell to a niche so you never have to worry about lead-generation again.</p>
<p>About the speaker</p>
<p>With a love for fine art and a knack for computers Graphic Design seemed the right ‘fit’ for me. As I moved out of college and started ‘working for the man’ I was retrenched and left stranded. I quickly realised I had to take action and forge my own destiny.</p>
<p>I’ve built 2 incredible brands and built up a talented team to help deliver to our clients.</p>
<p>It kills me to see other creatives not thriving in their business. Taking any work they can get and not charging what they’re truly worth.</p>
<p>I’m on a mission to change this.</p>
<p>My vision is that every creative is THRIVING in their business. Has a steady amount of recurring revenue in place and has a team in place they can rely on.</p>
<p>When I’m not mentoring creatives so they can THRIVE in their business and create the FREEDOM they SO deserve I’m eating my way through every Mexican restaurant in Sydney whilst wearing my Lorna Jane activewear.</p>

<p>In early 2019, I took a class at Cornell University on contributing to Open Source and worked with a team of 6 under the guidance of a WordPress mentor. I will share my experience as a first-time contributor to WordPress: how I familiarized myself with the codebase, got in touch with the WordPress Core (Privacy) and Gutenberg community, and pushed my first few patches out. I hope to entice you into joining this challenging and exhilarating group of WordPress contributors that will allow you to build impactful software and keep your developer’s edge razor sharp.</p>
<p>About the speaker</p>
<p>I believe some of the best code ever written is in the Open Source community and it has become a key source of software that runs our digital world today. As such, it is valuable to understand the ecosystem to benefit our own projects and to enable us to contribute back. My Open Source journey started at a college hackathon and I have contributed since then to projects such as WordPress and Hyperledger – a cross-industry blockchain technology hosted by the Linux Foundation. I currently hold a BSc in Computer Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana—Champaign (UIUC) and MEng in Computer Science from Cornell University.</p>

<p>Is WordPress insecure? Not at all! However, an outdated WordPress installation with a weak password and poorly chosen plugins is definitely insecure.</p>
<p>It’s often said that “security is a process”, and the security of your own site starts with you installing the WordPress. Why should you care about security from day one, when your website is brand new and only your mom reads it? What should you do yourself, while your site grows, even if you do not (yet) have the budget to hire experts? How can you make your visitors browsing safer? How can you minimize the chance you site got hacked?</p>
<p>In this talk I will go over some best practices you can implement to make your website safer and why you should care about them. None of these require a single line of code, only some common sense and understanding what is right and what should be avoided as a behaviour while you manage your site.</p>

<br>Kate Orcena and Jake Chew</p>
<p>Greenfossil started off as a Java team and considered themselves a proficient Java practitioner. As a lean team, they are always looking for ways to improve their effectiveness in terms of software design, development and maintainability. They were heavily dependent on Hibernate in all of their Java applications. As they transited from Java to Scala, they needed an immediate replacement for Hibernate. Not being able to find a ready solution, they decided to create a new Scala persistence library which would also enable them to migrate existing applications to Scala without migrating the databases. They’ve since developed more features and tweaked it for better performance. They’ll like to take this opportunity to share how the library works and how it benefits them in their development efforts.</p>
