How Technology has Shaped the Power Dynamics Between Designers, Developers & Marketers

Jason Cohen, CIO & Founder, WP Engine

WordPress turns 20 this year, which means developers, designers, and marketers have been working behind the scenes to build, design and create content for websites for two decades. Continuous change in content consumption and tension between the important teams that work in WordPress means creating websites hasn’t always been easy, and certainly comes with its own challenges today. We’ll take a quick look back at what the world of site creation in WordPress looked like in 2003, look at where we are today, and most importantly—will look ahead to what the next decade looks like for those who will innovate with WordPress and craft another generation’s worth of content.

It’s time to get serious about headless solutions. See how real businesses and agencies are creating headless web experiences that give developers the flexibility to use any front-end stack and enable content creators to use their preferred publishing interface. We’ll recap the advancements we’ve made with Atlas, WP Engine’s headless WordPress solution, in 2022, and will give you a sneak peak of how we plan to iterate and push beyond what’s possible in 2023.
