WordCamp Europe Second day recap

On the second day of WordCamp Europe, I saw some familiar faces that I saw on the last day. For example, Kat a Woocommerce employee is responsible for documenting the plugins and API inside Woothemes. Andres the guy that works at WPML, and Julia, a German girl who works as a freelancer in Berlin. These things made the event easier because I started to know the people and know whom I asked what I need do.

My Task at WordCamp Europe 2016

Now was in the registration; this time was a little hard because, I needed to give many different pieces of information about the Wordcamp, the rules, and how to solve some small problems. But was good for practicing my English.

After the registration, I finished my tasks on the second day, and at 11 AM I went to Halle E to watch the lectures, the first that I saw was about rest API. I think this is the focus of Automatic at this time. Calypso, Rest API, and REACT are present in all lectures about development. If you haven’t studied yet, you need to look at these technologies.

When the second day ended, I was so tired but felt everything was good.

After the second day was the after party, I had to meet my friends at another party and just passed to say hello and decided to walk around the city before went to another place and this was the best idea. Wien at night is so beautiful. The architecture, the city center, and the lights create a wonderful atmosphere. The city is incredible. After I was little walking through the city, I met my Brazilian friend that works in Mailpoet. There we talked about work, life in Europe, and remote jobs.

The contributor day

The last day was the contributor day. There were many tracks, that we could contribute to:

  • Community
  • Marketing
  • Theme Review
  • WordPress Core
  • Rest API
  • Translation

There we needed to choose one of these themes, and I decided Theme review was a good experience; in the first part, the Leader developer showed how to review a theme and gave many tips. In the second part, we choose a Theme in the repository to review. For me was the first time I reviewed a theme in the WordPress repository before I didn’t figure out this was so simple.

Last words

Resume work as a volunteer at WordCamp Europe was the best thing I decided to do during my time in Europe. I met many people and got in touch with old friends. It was a big opportunity to know the European WordPress Community and was my first and biggest event as a crew in Europe. Now I will start looking for another event here in Europe.
