Developer Hours: Modern WordPress development with the wp-scripts package

In the final installment of Developer Hours for 2023, we explored how the wp-scripts package has become an essential tool for modern WordPress development, such as when building blocks and block themes. If you are looking to streamline your development process, harness the power of build tools, and simplify tasks such as checking for compliance with WordPress coding standards, this session recording is for you.

First 🙃 Thanks for the great session and updated documentation resources! This tool and all the getting started improvements make block development so much more approachable

What I would love to see is taking a design in let’s say Figma and converting that design into a block theme. That’s more real world. You get a design approved, then you have to make that a functional theme both for desktop and mobile designs.

Thanks for the video. It has cleared up a lot of questions I had especially with creating a theme with custom blocks in it and creating your own custom webpack config file that still works with with wp-scripts. Much appreciated!

I would like to see wp-scripts and other goodies built into Visual Studio Code as a plug-in. I personally prefer to bypass blocks and use ReactJS within WP Admin. For post types and Taxonomy i use Acf.

Interesting so I am planning to use Vue and SCSS so I guess I only need to wp_enqueue_script script for index.js and same with main.css ? Trying to see how I can make this work, still new to it, I can build projects in vue and want to combine it with Wordpress

Is there a schedule somewhere for these livestreams?

How to setup auto prefixer for CSS with wp-scripts with/without webpack?

[softnwords]

I have installed nodejs in vps and trying to execute npm install @wordpress/scripts --save-dev and it triggered my vps nginx to stop and no further actions seems.Am I missing something?
