Kumar will be speaking at WordCamp Kochi on the topic – Headless WordPress with React

Headless WordPress means using WordPress only for its backend and building the frontend in any other framework/language that can fetch JSON Response that WordPress spits out.

In his session, Kumar will be looking to cover how WordPress can be used as a headless CMS and how to pair it with React on the frontend with some tips about the best deployment and git workflow. He’ll also explain why splitting frontend and backend can be a good idea, along with some examples from many gists and GitHub boilerplate code to start playing with WordPress REST API with React Hooks.
