AI is rapidly changing how developers build for WordPress, but the real opportunity goes far beyond simply generating code from prompts.
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore how modern AI agents, MCP (Model Context Protocol), and AI-powered development tools can become part of a practical WordPress development workflow.
We’ll look at how AI can understand a WordPress project, interact with development tools, inspect existing code, help build new functionality, debug issues, and automate repetitive development tasks. Instead of treating AI as a replacement for development skills, the workshop will focus on using it as a powerful assistant that works alongside your existing WordPress knowledge.
Participants will learn the fundamentals of MCP and AI agents, how these technologies connect with modern coding tools, and how they can be used safely and effectively in real WordPress projects.
The session will include practical demonstrations and real-world workflows, with a strong focus on productivity, security, code quality, and maintaining human control over the development process.
By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a clear understanding of how AI-assisted WordPress development works today and how they can start integrating these tools into their own development workflow.
