adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 21/01/2025I just saw pootlewriter.com from @JamiePootle – it's seriously cool! You can start writing with a click, no logins, no friction, and then publish to WordPress when ready. 100

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 16/12/2024Another State of the Word, another great year for WordPress Playground! It took Playground two short years to go from a cool tech demo to a powerful tool used by WordPress educators, builders, and innovators. It's hard to believe Playground didn't even exist when 2022 began! 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 11/12/2024Clear, descriptive naming in code isn't just pedantic—it's accessibility. As someone with ADHD, I rely on self-documenting code since I forget a lot and I can't hold much context in my mind. Clear > clever 000

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 26/09/2024Pull requests have UX Good UX = it's clear: • What the PR does and why • Why these choices • What's that weird looking function?! • How to test it Bad UX = "fixes a CSS bug" Good UX costs 20 minutes of writing today. Bad UX costs 5 hours of detective work tomorrow. 000

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 10/09/2024I generated 1MB of PHP code using AI. It was a MySQL query parser. I needed it to improve SQLite support in WordPress. It took two nights, $520, and a passive aggressive prompt I felt bad about 😅 It worked, but not without bugs. Here’s the story: adamadam.blog/2024/09/09/generating-... 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 09/09/2024Multi-site management with locally stored WordPress Playgrounds is coming soon! Once ready, it will open the door to a ton of great features that just wouldn't work with the current UI, like: • Site templates • Synchronizing sites with git • Sharing Playgrounds ...and more! 000

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 21/06/2024For the last year, I couldn't find a fast, low-transfer way of downloading Git files in Playground. Yesterday it finally clicked – Playground needs a Git client in the browser! It actually works! Here's an explainer and a link to code: adamadam.blog/2024/06/21/cloning-a-…... 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 15/06/2024How would you feel about „Playbooks” as a new name for „Blueprints”? 000

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 22/05/2024How would you rather use React assuming all your imports etc would still work? I’m exploring a WordPress Playground-based WordPress Block code editor and can’t decide whether vanilla JS is enough or it needs an in-browser bundler. 100

adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 22/02/2024Hey @glcst, what about SQLite excites you the most? WordPress now runs on SQLite directly in the browser and I wonder how to make the most of it w.org/playground 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 30/01/2024What features would you can't wait to see in WordPress Playground? What would they unlock for you? 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 30/01/2024Playground now supports multisites: Query API: playground.wordpress.net/?multisite… Blueprints API: { "steps": [ { "step": "enableMultisite" } ] } Enjoy! :-) 000

I’m sure there’s many limitations, though. Please report any issues at 100
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 11/12/2023Playground Blueprints make it *really* easy to setup sites. The WordPress + GPT builder you saw on #StateOfTheWord took me and @artpi a day to build. Make GPT build a Blueprint.json file, paste it in the URL, done. A year ago that wasn’t even imaginable. 000
adamziel.bsky.social @adamziel.bsky.social · 11/12/2023It’s really heartwarming to see all the great #StateOfTheWord comments about Playground — thank you all so much! I couldn’t post on the YT chat, but I was there reading :-) 000
