Foreword

The web is evolving and WordPress is no different. What started out as a blogging platform has grown into a powerful content management system that powers more websites on the internet today than any other platform. WordPress is endlessly flexible, allowing you to build any type of application you can dream of. Whether it’s a native mobile app for locating a local business or an e-commerce desktop app with membership capabilities, WordPress has the ability not only to power these apps, but to drastically reduce the development time to do so.

Brian and Jason are leading the charge in changing how we think about app development. Their knowledge and experience will help guide you through the process of building powerful web applications using the internet’s most popular development framework, WordPress.

The future of the internet is web apps and WordPress is making it easier than ever to create that future. Code on!
