Any advice for someone who is beginning to freelance on the side? I’m already a software developer but want to make a few bucks on the side through Wordpress. However, don’t really know where to start. What would be the best way to learn the ecosystem? Any courses? I pretty much have html css js and php locked in so wouldn’t struggle with that.

What your thoughts on WordPress theme developer vs WordPress Plugin Developer? What a beginner should learn?

Truly good work!

I am so relieved!

Written down points help add value to the talk. I did not know a few things in there. The idea of combining Twitter spaces with the live KZread broadcast is an excellent idea as well. Stef keeps adding value to the channel. Going great! Keep it up.

There are so many pedantic comments against Wordpress and PHP that just shows how real life *_!=_* reddit/youtube comment sections lol Many freelancers/companies still use Wordpress and PHP because its _profitable_

If I wanted to break into the development field fast is going full stack web developer a better way to get into the development field over learning C#/C++ or Data Science related stuff such as AI/ML/DL?

Because it's all point and click. Want new functionality, or a new look? Point and click install a plug-in and you're done. No programming skills necessary :-)

There much faster, stable, cost effective and faster growing nocode and low code CMS solutions. WP is like the MS of the 2000's trying to reinvent themselves. I find their UI and processes management so slow.

You are missing the point. Wordpress isn’t crushing it because it has excellent code (it doesn’t). Wordpress is crushing it because it has a whole ecosystem that alternatives can’t complete with.

I'm glad WP has such a big influence for PHP and has done tremendous work to work in that ecosystem. I don't need to use WP that often, therefore work with other frameworks.

​​@AR I agree and say this all the time to people. It's very flexible and can accomplish most tasks, profitably. I've used more than several CMSes, and I find WP top-notch. There's a lot out of the box that I don't need to program. Contentful is second place and Webflow is 2nd place contender as well. But, I always hug WP when all else fails.

I suggest you heavily discount the first few in exchange for testimonials. Once you get a few done, you can charge normal prices. Offer a free lead magnet as well.

Hello Stefan, my name is Jovane and I am from Angola-Africa, and I would like to know if there are any online courses in the USA on web development such as (HTML, CSS & JAVASCRIPT) that I could take from Angola. I need so much training with certification, because here in my country cerfication is very important, please help me out!

If you can pay, Stef has a Bootcamp. Else there is the Odin project and full stack open, which are both free.

But its hard to get clients

WordPress is also the MOST hacked!! Not to mention upgrade issues if you're using plugins especially ones that have not yet been updated to the latest version of WP! So be very very careful when you upgrade WP!

@carstenaltena

Using things like Wordfence, 2fa and educating your clients on how to create hard to crack/easy to remember passwords (in case they don't want to use a pw manager) goes a long way. Also, limit the amount of plugins always, and if you do use 3rd party plugins, go for the ones that are frequently updated.

The same thing is valid if you don't properly test and upgrade other frameworks too. It is most hacked because it's most popular, but you get fast updates and can greatly limit the hacking with active firewalls, geo-locking, and so on.
