WCEU 2020 Contributor Day Wrap Up


For the very first online WordCamp Europe Contributor Day Documentation team had two virtual Zoom rooms, one for end user documentation, facilitated by @bph, and the other for developer documentation, facilitated by @leogermani.

We had total of 4 new contributors, evenly distributed in our Zoom rooms.

The most interest went to Block Editor end user documentation. This work is under review.

Work on redirecting Functions code reference from Codex to DevHub is nearing its completeness: 92.2%.

Plugin Developer Handbook was reviewed for content that is not limited to plugins development, during which page about HTTP API has been split into several sections and planned to be moved to Common APIs Handbook.

Block Editor developer documentation will soon be enriched with a tutorial on Creating a block. This tutorial is meant for all junior and PHP developers trying to bridge development practices before Block Editor and new ways of building with WordPress.

A warm welcome to @kmeze, @femkreations, @peteringersoll and @lvg2013. Thank you for joining Documentation team.

Also, huge thanks to all new and more experienced contributors and team members who joined us during WCEU 2020 Contributor Day: @kenshino, @atachibana, @sukafia, @bph, @leogermani, @mkaz, @estelaris, @tacitonic, @cguntur, @makewebbetter, @chaion07, @softservenet, @bobbingwide, @kartiks16, @fierevere, @garrett-eclipse, @saiftheboss7, @wernerm274, @JeremyG, @Glauber Silva, @Lev N, @Taha Qureshi, @ruchitshah.

I apologise if I missed someone or if your username at Slack and WordPress.org is not the same and I couldn’t find the latter. Let me know in comments and I’ll add or modify it.

Thank you everyone and hope to see you all in person at some other Contributor Day(s) where we can share the cookies and hugs. Until then stay safe and take care of yourselves.
