Components all the way down: Building a component library for WordPress

Tight budgets, tighter deadlines, and changing requirements. The agency environment is a challenging one, where you often feel forced to hit the impossible trifecta of good, fast, and cheap. Is it possible to build high quality websites, quickly, and in a maintainable way?

This talk presents component driven development as an answer to this question, sharing first hand experience at a top Berlin WordPress agency and the lessons learnt by breaking all of our challenges (both conceptual and code) into components. Plus, you’ll learn how we use our open source component library and WordPress framework (built on Timber and Advanced Custom Fields) to do this.
