Announcing BuddyCamp Miami 2017!

 

What Is A BuddyCamp?

TcHTOhsrBuddyCamp is a mini-conference (or a workshop) that focuses on the BuddyPress and bbPress plugins. This unique conference focuses on how you can use these plugins as you use WordPress to build SOCIAL or COMMUNITY sites and web applications for you or your clients.

As of now, the schedule follows a traditional WordCamp format, with beginner sessions along with designer / developer presentations. Key people and contributors will be speaking, answering questions, and hanging out.

But That’s Not All – Here Comes The WP-REST API!

Would you like to learn more about the WP-REST API. Perhaps you want to prepare for the day when BuddyPress has it’s own REST API. Either way, if you want to lean about the WP-REST API we are planning on including some instruction into this workshop for developers!


BuddyCamp Miami has been happening for FOUR years. Attendance has been strong every year, and we’re happy the community has supported the longest running BuddyPress event. Seriously 4 or 5 years is sometimes remarkable for a plugin to exist, let alone have a conference for it.

Lead organizers of BuddyPress even call Miami the unofficial home of BuddyCamps (are we misquoting? probably). Please check out BuddyCamp Miami videos on wordpress.tv from our last WordCamp Miami.

What is the date for BuddyCamp Miami 2017?

Our confirmed date is March 24th, 2017 (a Friday). 

Some of our confirmed speakers include…

John James Jacoby: One of the core contributors to BuddyPress… he will be talking about the current state of the plugin and answer questions.

Tara Claeys: Will be reviewing case studies and helping attendees appreciate how they can use BuddyPress for their own projects.

Tanner Moushey: Will be covering how to use BuddyPress to build a successful community site, and at the same time not just focused on features.

…and more speakers talking about the WordPress/BuddyPress REST API!
