More than a week ago, I and designers and developers from WOO vast world, developers, freelance occupations, freelance occupations Go to Seattle with the agent to participate in the annual party of Woocommerce in Wooconf.
For me, this is the climax of 10 months of work starting in early January. At that time, I started planning content. From 15 Skype telephones to discuss different people from meeting, demonstrations, and seminars from the meeting to two days, I hope we can implement the requirements of the community together.
Continue to read three things we hope to take away from Wooconf 2017 on the scene or live broadcast.
#1: WOO ecosystem is larger than you think
WoOoconf starts with the WOO status of the person in charge of Woocommerce Todd Wilkens. TODD \u200b\u200bshared some numbers we often see -32M Wookommerce and 3M active installations from WordPress.org.
Then he asked the room how many commercials actually passed the WOO store. No one is approaching.
Wooocommerce store estimates that it will bring $ 10 billion in revenue -which is higher than the GDP of Bahamas. WP TAVERN likes these numbers very much, they completed an article within a few hours.
So many business is the result of a large number of stores running on Woocommerce and a larger store to add an open e -commerce world.
With the continuous development of the ecosystem,
Everyone is considering expanding scale .
From my interview, I know whether people are worried or curious about whether Woocommerce can be expanded and extended, so we have discussed many times.
How about the 5 millisecond page of the #WOOCOMERCE store? @ZStepek and @mindSizeme team have already achieved #Wooconf Pic.twitter.com/tqqzdof1wqinger

[123 ] One of the keynote speeches from Mindsize’s Zack Stepek, who shared everything they did to run faster to run WooCommerce.
I won’t lie — when Zach told me in his keynote speech that he would have
two
on -site demonstration instead of one, instead of one on the spot, I almost had a heart attack. I have made many live demonstrations, and they always broke out in a grand way.
No big deal. It’s a big bang.
Okay, fortunately for us, Zach is a collective performance and shows an amazing live demonstration- Load thousands of search results in a few milliseconds. And show us the new WOOCOMMERCE order list of Woocommerce core .
I am glad to hear the @coderkevin #wooconf pic.twitter.com/65Ektwhhdp Discussion on extension #Woocommerce -Dwayne McDaniel (@mcdwayne) October 19, 2017
One of the core developers, Kevin Killingsworth, shared the core The team does the work of expanding the core of Woocommerce so that we can handle more and more stores (you know, if you want to process more than 5 orders per second). He covers the key importance of CRUD (creating reading update and deleting) and core data storage abstraction for performance and scalability, and provides examples of the two.
Of course, we also have related topics. David Lockie talked about corporate e -commerce. Jimmy Rosen and Richard Sweeney talked about expanding your website for international sales.
CE is interested, please contact WOO staff. #2: Customers are the core of great products We started planning WOOCONF with the Woocommerce community, which is the core of everything. This seems to have contributed to a more powerful meeting, which is also what Woocommerce is introducing their products.
This year we decided to pay special attention to developers, although we have both shop owners and developers in the previous WOOCONFS. We want to learn more deeply about the complexity of Woocommerce, and think that we cannot do this fairly through decentralized attention.
Our data shows that customers hope to hear more information about how to build a great Woocommerce store from us.
These are the types of posts we are best at, and it is also the most questioned question; we hope to respond to the needs of the community and focus on the role of \”store builders\” and \”expanded builders\”.
It seems that we did not listen to Wrong -74% of WOOCONF’s participants established a store, and 50% development expansion. The main room of wooconf
Putting our community in it is also the way I ended the 15 Skype call: We are even starting I want to receive your letter before the plan. It feels really returned.
Kandace Brigleb, a partner of Needmore Designs, proposed the same topic to understand customer and user research. He not only talked about the design website, but also talked about experience. She pays great attention to design thinking. Design is not just a role in your team. It is a mentality. It is about establishing empathy with your users.
In his closing keynote speech, John Maeda’s inclusiveness and computing design leader John Maeda finalized this home by talking about your users and the free value of your business in your business.
Jetpack sponsored a artist’s visual record of all the keynote speeches. This is John Maeda and his conference notes. Putting the customer in the first place and the center are we are dancingWhat we talked about on the stage, we tried to explain this during the entire meeting.
For the first time, we have the product research laboratory led by Maria Scarpello. We have opened up registered registration and talked with designers and developers who are engaged in Woocommerce -they can provide feedback, explain their experience and share their frustration.
Two developers interviewed a client in our design laboratory
We sent an email one week before Wooconf, asking people to register The laboratory hopes to fill in about a quarter of places. To our surprise,
each position was filled with
. All in all, 65 customers have passed the laboratory with us. We still have a lot of work to do, and we need to take action to make many great suggestions.
In the future, if you are interested in providing feedback to us, please register the design feedback group.
#3: The community is the core of woocommerce A person I interviewed said: WoOoconf should emphasize the strong level of the community 123] This has become a clue that runs through WOOCONF. Almost every speaker talks about this -from TODD mentioned to the 613 contributors to the Woocommerce plug -in to Aviva Pinchas on the WOO market, which emphasizes some of some in Woocommerce.com Developers sold and how they have solved the problem for customers.
Beka Rice talks about the benefits of open e -commerce
For me, one of the most influential speakers is Beka Rice, he talked about Open the power of e -commerce. She talked about the obstacles that she had to experience when developing on the Shopify platform and her team that she and her team had to experience when copying product additional components.
I found an error on the platform […] If I can access it Code library, I can help you optimize it -we are a software development team. I have to wait for them to say, \”We will study this soon.\” Here, I have no ability to solve this problem.
Another way we want to highlight the community is through our Golden Ticket competition. We provide free tickets, air tickets and accommodation for the lucky WOO-E to submit their excellent websites built by WooCommerce.
This year’s winners are front -end developers, UX designers and DJ Kevin Eurenberg from Hamburg, Germany. Our gold ticket winner and first speaker Kevin Olunberg
KEVIN never spoke at the meeting before. I was glad that he could be able Join us and participate in the WOO community.
Of course, showing that the community is not only about what happened on the stage -it can also be on the meeting at the meeting He met with people within two days, encountered successful developers while lining up to drink coffee, or sat down with core contributors at lunch. We hope to maximize the opportunity to discover these unexpectedly, so we leave a lot of space between the conversation and provide a laptop computer lounge, where the participants can gather there.
We also brought the IRL WOOCONF community to our hometown -we chatted in the WooCommerce community SLACK during the entire meeting, and invited watching party participants from all over the world in order You can contact.
Happy Time after the first day One of the goals of our and WOOCONF is to make it a event that anyone will feel tolerance and popular Essence We are very lucky to have rich experience in how some people in Automattic have more inclusiveness. With their suggestions and support, we have adopted many practical steps for this.
We have developed a code of conduct.
We ensure that there is a bathroom that is regardless of gender.We have received hidden subtitle sponsorship to help those English are not first languages.
We have a mother’s room.
We strive to diversify the speakers and staff on the scene. It is encouraging that it seems to have an impact: Although women account for a few in #WoOconf, I have never felt so popular and comfortable at technical conferences.The organizer created the correct clue.

Okay, fortunately for us, Zach is a collective performance and shows an amazing live demonstration-
