WordPress Meetup Groups

Meetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month).

Anything that brings together 2 or more people to share their WordPress experiences counts — there’s no minimum number of attendees or required format.

These events (commonly referred to as meetups, which can be confusing since people often use the same word to describe the group itself) take many formats:

presentations/lecture series,
hackathons,
social gatherings,
workshops,
co-working,
running a WordPress help desk,
contributor sprints/drives, and others.

Coding Standards

Why have coding standards?

Coding standards help avoid common coding errors, improve the readability of code, and simplify modification. They ensure that files within the project appear as if they were created by a single person.

Following the standards means anyone will be able to understand a section of code and modify it, if needed, without regard to when it was written or by whom.

If you are planning to contribute to WordPress core, you need to familiarize yourself with these standards, as any code you submit will need to comply with them.

Setup of local development server

The four popular local servers are (not in any particular order):

MAMP (Mac & Windows)
WampServer (Windows)
XAMPP (Windows, Mac, Linux)
Varying Vagrant Vagrants (VVV – WordPress specific Vagrant configuration for Windows, Mac, Linux)

Your choice of a local server program will primarily depend on which operating system you run on your computer. There are a couple that work on multiple operating systems, and all will give you a solid local development environment.
