If you're just getting going or need a refresher. This WordPress book does a great job at going over how things work, how to use them, and how to build the right way.

I low-key found this book on a mistake while looking for a book on block development in WordPress. Being a hardcore developer, I didn't think I would enjoy a book on block styling and patterns so much. I not only brushed up on modern design patterns and styling, but also a history lesson on where themes been and how they transformed into what is now called Block Themes. Awesome read.

After 15 years working as a software developer, I haven't seen a so condensed resource which explains so well how the WordPress code and Panel works. Me as a Dino dev, and someone who has been working with WordPress since version 2.8, I can say this is the kind of books that I wished to exist in my times, it definitely would saved me a lot of headaches. The blocks and Themes explanation is perfect if you are trying to start over this world, I recommended it 200%

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
