#WordPress as a git repo

"I’ve turned WordPress into a markdown editor, a git client, and a git server. It’s all dependency-free #PHP code. It works in Playground, on any cheap hosting, and it could be merged into WordPress core."

I just saw https://pootlewriter.com/ from @JamiePootle – it's seriously cool! You can start writing with a click, no logins, no friction, and then publish to WordPress when ready.

Another State of the Word, another great year for WordPress Playground!
It took Playground two short years to go from a cool tech demo to a powerful tool used by WordPress educators, builders, and innovators.
It's hard to believe Playground didn't even exist when 2022 began!

Clear, descriptive naming in code isn't just pedantic—it's accessibility.
As someone with ADHD, I rely on self-documenting code since I forget a lot and I can't hold much context in my mind.

Pull requests have UX
Good UX = it's clear:
• What the PR does and why
• Why these choices
• What's that weird looking function?!
• How to test it
Bad UX = "fixes a CSS bug"
Good UX costs 20 minutes of writing today. Bad UX costs 5 hours of detective work tomorrow.

I generated 1MB of PHP code using AI.
It was a MySQL query parser. I needed it to improve SQLite support in WordPress.
It took two nights, $520, and a passive aggressive prompt I felt bad about 😅 It worked, but not without bugs.

Multi-site management with locally stored WordPress Playgrounds is coming soon!
Once ready, it will open the door to a ton of great features that just wouldn't work with the current UI, like:
• Site templates
• Synchronizing sites with git
• Sharing Playgrounds
...and more!

For the last year, I couldn't find a fast, low-transfer way of downloading Git files in Playground.
Yesterday it finally clicked – Playground needs a Git client in the browser!
It actually works! Here's an explainer and a link to code:

How would you rather use React assuming all your imports etc would still work?
I’m exploring a WordPress Playground-based WordPress Block code editor and can’t decide whether vanilla JS is enough or it needs an in-browser bundler.
