Google’s performance centric booth participated in Wordcamp us2017 (Wordcamp us2017). The booth side not only uses tools used to evaluate specific WordPress performance characteristics (such as webpagetest\/lighthouse), but also understands the status of the WordPress ecosystem based on data from the perspective of core performance indicators and coding best practices. Website. The other party launched a new audit tool tide, which is shared with the excellent XWP engineering team, making it possible to evaluate the quality of plug-ins and topics. Our goal is to participate in the WordPress community and start discussing the performance of the WordPress ecosystem. We regard the event as a success! Experience is good, and we have a point of view. The
The reason why Google chose to cooperate with WordPress is that CMS space contains an important part of the web. There are many players, and many of them provide wonderful technology. In terms of functions and functions, WordPress is very similar to other CMS in the market, but several factors make the WordPress ecosystem different. First, the success of the platform. WordPress accounts for 59% of the CMS market share. Today, about 1\/3 of web content is driven by WordPress. The second is a large and continuously expanding ecosystem composed of themes, plug-ins, hosting providers, developers, consultants and professional word press experts who work together to produce word press based content. The third is the word press community. The more we pay attention to all aspects of the WordPress ecosystem, the more we can recognize all levels, upward and downward friendliness, diversity, inclusiveness, enthusiasm and efforts of the community. But in essence, Google and WordPress have the same mission. The core of Google’s mission is to contribute to the popularization of a healthy, prosperous and vibrant web. We have invested a lot of energy and resources to provide all users with a pleasant (i.e. user-friendly, fast and attractive) user experience. Similarly, the central part of the WordPress creation mission is to democratize web publishing, which means providing excellent UX for all users (such as content creators, site owners, developers and content consumers) on WordPress based websites. Therefore, we can work together to redouble our efforts and accelerate the success of overlapping tasks. The
What does Google do in Wordcamp us? Google has always supported efforts to create a better web. This year, in order to accelerate the adoption of the latest web technologies and coding best practices, we began to work together to adjust the guidelines in a wide range of web (tools, data, scalability, system infrastructure, advanced technology and performance) professional areas. In the WordPress ecosystem. At the beginning of this effort, we realized that we are involved in the WordPress ecosystem in the same way as we are involved in all ecosystems on the web. This will bring our voice and receptivity to the WordPress form and find solutions for all requirements. Through joint efforts. The
The existence of Wordcamp has greatly improved our goals. We’ve been talking about performance for two days. View data that shows the performance gap between word press and the wider web. Introduce features and datasets that are available to all to begin a deeper understanding of performance at all levels. Use the necessary performance analysis tools (such as webpagetest and lighthouse) to view the detailed performance of many WordPress sites owned by attendees. XWP colleagues also launched and tried the tide audit tool. Everyone can view the analysis results of more than 40000 audit plug-ins. Tide is also in the state of the word
Matt Mullenweg introduced to all participants. We are pleased with the tremendous response of tide and the 2018 roadmap. This will be an important part of the WordPress ecosystem. The
Male also learned and received important feedback from various attendees, freelance developers, consultants and website owners at all levels. One of the valuable feedback is the frustration and powerlessness of WordPress developers, who feel pressure from customers to add features in the form of plug-ins in most cases. A given plug-in can have a negative impact on the performance of the site being deployed. This particular issue is addressed by the tide project. Allows developers and site owners to choose plug-ins with rich features and excellent performance. The
To conclude, we attended the journalists’ day, which was also a great experience. The best open source software. All open source communities on the scale of WordPress can enjoy the benefits of organizing the wisdom of the WordPress community. The next place to go is the web platform, which has developed rapidly in recent years. As we said, it is still evolving. The standard of web experience has been greatly improved. This is essentially reflected in all rumors about the term \
In order to accelerate the integration of modern front-end technologies into the theme ecosystem, we can focus on the simple but powerful block concept, and integrate the revolutionary Gutenberg of WordPress content production, plug-in +pwa construction and progressive web technologies (such as service workers) into WordPress. For example, surma@google and Dan wamsley@automatic jointly released the preliminary results of PWA and word press integration on chrome dev summit this year. By contributing to the tide project of AMP plug-in function and extension scope, users can select high-quality themes and plug-ins to control site performance. Systematically track the performance of the WordPress ecosystem using a wide range of data sets and a powerful Google data processing infrastructure, so as to deeply track the performance of the WordPress ecosystem over time, and more. It was a great experience to be a member of Wordcamp us this year. I am glad to cooperate with WordPress ecosystem experts including automatic, XWP, WP engine, 10up, etc. and many core contributors of the WordPress developer community to help the development of WordPress. Please continue to pay attention!
