Developer Tools
Check out this project from Roots called Bedrock — “WordPress boilerplate with modern development tools, easier configuration, and an improved folder structure.” 🛠️
Bedrock is inspired by Heroku‘s Twelve-Factor App methodology, including Scott Walkinshaw‘s WordPress specific version.
I’m sure many developers can relate to Khaliq Gant saying he’s “not really a good web developer” — he’s “just good at Googling things.”
That’s not self-deprecation because, as Khaliq points out, it takes a solid base of knowledge and training to know what questions to ask. Then you have to assess the answers you get and come to the right conclusions in your own coding decisions.
The ability to self-educate is essential, especially in a field that changes quickly. 👩🏫
