create Calagator::Event 1250467232 Developer: "Fluffy Bunny," the story of refactoring Digital Trends Roll back

description nil <p>Join the developers of <a href="http://digitaltrends.com/">digitaltrends.com</a> (Richard Benjamin and Brandon Clark) as we share the trials and tribulations of refactoring one of the web's largest WordPress sites.</p> <p>Back in January we started a secret internal project humorously dubbed "Fluffy Bunny". The goal was to overhaul <a href="http://digitaltrends.com/">digitaltrends.com</a> and transform it into something modern that would free us from the chains of a legacy codebase. Six months later we unveiled the Digital Trends 2014 theme (AKA: The Unified Theme) which was a near complete end to end rewrite of not just the theme but also much of the core architecture of the site.</p> <p>This will be a high level talk about our development process and thoughts on writing maintainable and modular code within the context of a major site refactor. We will touch on theme and plugin development, project organization, and a good amount of what we jokingly refer to as "code punditry". Afterwards we will be available for extended questions and answers.</p>
