WordPress, React, and CallForCode

How WordPress and React can work together in more ways than you may think.

This talk will focus on my experience building SchoolListit (a WP / React app) and the adventure I’ve had offering it to the 2020 CallForCode Covid response challenge.

  • Description of SchoolListIt, how I built it, and where I plan to take it.
  • Under the hood – how I chose to integrate WP – React – IBM Cloud.
  • Learnings and Observations: My experience participating in 2020CallForCode Covid Response

There will also be an opportunity to deep dive into the topic through a Q&A session.
