The WP REST API as the Foundation of the Open Web

The WP REST API is baked into WordPress, runs on a standardized protocol, and allows your site to have even greater reach through integrations and syndication. Unlike AMP, FBIA or other proprietary formats for delivering content, the REST protocol is not locked down to one platform. The REST API allows you to support a wide variety of clients from mobile apps to voice interfaces to desktop apps to solutions that haven’t even been imagined yet.

In this talk, we’ll explore:
– How the WP REST API can enable web to print workflows through InDesign,
– Making your content more accessible through Google Home and Alexa
– Even distribute your content to services your readers have built to consume content on their own terms.

Come explore how the REST API can truly be the foundation of a more open web.
