Overview of this book

WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to enhance the typography of everyday writing and has grown to be the largest self-hosted website platform in the world. This book will help you to use WordPress efficiently, effectively, and professionally, with new ideas and expert perspectives on full system exploitation. This book starts with an overview of the WordPress system, its major functional elements, and a top-level description of what happens when a WordPress generated web page is displayed. Next, you’ll dive into the core of WordPress, studying internal code flow and data structures. You’ll also learn how to extend WordPress through plugins and customize them via themes. The last section of this book combines a developer view of user experience and optimization with the deployer requirements for performance, security, and enterprise integration. By the end of this book, you’ll have enough knowledge to develop and deploy successful WordPress sites.
