Sunday, October 29 – Contributor Day
WordCamp Philly Contributor Day (we used to call it Developer Day) will be Sunday, October 29, from 1-5 pm, also at the University of the Sciences! We’ll be in the IPEX building.
Sunday Contributor Day will be less session based and more hands-on hacking! There’s no fixed agenda, but some of the things folks have worked on are:
- Plugin development
- Theming and theme development
- Core contributions
Bring your laptops, tablets, mobile phones, and other gadgets and we’ll bring power and wifi!
And on Saturday Night…
The After-Party!
The official WordCamp Philly After-Party will be held at William Street Common at 3900 Chestnut Street.
You don’t want to miss this one! We’ll have drinks and food for everyone and you can rock out with the WordPress community from 6 to 10 pm. One of the best parts of WordCamp is meeting so many great people who share your interests and love to talk WordPress . Here’s your chance to make connections and enjoy a wonderful time with a welcoming community. Please show your WCPhilly badge at the door.
