How the NEW (Redux Based) Data API Changes Everything in WordPress

How we get and interact with data in WordPress is changing dramatically as of WordPress 5.0 and the release of the new Data API. The Data API is built with the Redux state management library (although no experience with Redux is necessary). The Data API allows developers to get data from WordPress and dispatch actions using JavaScript in ways that were not possible before.

The Data API is the future of how to interact with data in WordPress using JavaScript and React and is an essential skill for any serious WordPress Developer.

In this talk, educator Zac Gordon, will cover how the Data API works, what options are available and some important things to know. We will also look at how you can use the Data API to manage state for your own WordPress plugins.
