WordCamp Asia 2024: Plugin’s team table on contributor day

With  WordCamp Asia 2024 coming soon, we need to get ready for  contributor day Contributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/ . !

To ensure a smooth experience on the day, we recommend installing a local development environment on your laptop in advance. The conference venue’s Wi-Fi may not always be optimal, especially when many people are using it simultaneously. Achieving this prerequisite over a stable and fast connection is much simpler.

Here’s the checklist:

  1. Latest Local WordPress Setup: You can use tools like MAMP, XAMPP, Local by Flywheel, Docker, or WP-Now.
  2. Latest Stable Version of Node.js and npm: You can find it here: Node.js (LTS version is the one used by core Core Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. and Gutenberg Gutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/ ).
  3. Code Editor: Consider using VSCode or Sublime.4. Git Git Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. Most modern plugin and theme development is being done with this version control system. https://git-scm.com/ . : its optional but good to have

We eagerly anticipate your presence at the event!
