New look wp.new

@miriamschwab Yes, similar to how skills.sh is built.

@vikasprogrammer This is really interesting! Do you envision there being some kind of apps marketplace/repo for easy finding and installation of supported apps?

wp-apps.org Apps for WP - without the speed or security problems.

@aravindajith APIs can be called from the App server.

@vikasprogrammer This is super interesting! Quick question though - how does the “zero runtime cost” actually work? Even if the work is moved off the request cycle, there are still API calls, caching, or background processing involved, right? Curious how you’re thinking about it 🙂

@imdkarfa "Separate runtime" means separate process, not separate server. The isolation is at the API/process level, not the hardware level, more here: #does-each-app-need-its-own-server" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/InstaWP/wp-app…

@vikasprogrammer or is it architecturally feasible to co-locate these runtime endpoints within the same environment that hosts the WordPress application itself?

@jdevalk @divydovy Thanks Joost! <3

@vikasprogrammer @divydovy I really like this approach Vikas!

@alanefuller @Gtarafdarr True

@vikasprogrammer @Gtarafdarr Ironically you have to install a plugin with the keys to the kingdom. But it is a great idea. Should be in core.

@vegardwikeby have been thinking about this for a while, but yeah its a trigger. Shopify is the real inspiration behind it.

@vikasprogrammer is this EmDash inspired?

@MattReinholz @EliasGomezPro I was focused on the outcome, which is creating apps that do not mess up the performance and security of a WordPress site. That's it

Well, you can deploy independent services also as part of a unified CI/CD flow with the main WordPress instance. The question here is for me: if it's completely independent, what do I need a framework for? It seems to boil down to the API access layer, which makes total sense to me. I'm mostly curious about the long-term idea and vision.

Demo:

🚨 Bengaluru is getting a massive cricket stadium with a capacity of 80,000 at Suryanagara 4th Phase, Anekal, Bengaluru. Bids were invited for construction costing 943.46 crore. For context, Ahmedabad's Modi Stadium was built for under 800 crore. Designs 👇️

Why does the MCP Adapter not publish all the abilities available in the Abilities Explorer? cc @jameswlepage

Its time. Who is coming to WordCamp Asia!!!

@dennishegstad @vercel Instapods.com

Where would you deploy and host a blog? I can't justify the @vercel usage costs for a simple blog I was testing some AI stuff with. $50+ a month in usage costs to deploy a blog without a CMS or any back-end is not interesting. Not a fan of webflow anymore... Where are you hosting blogs with +1000s of pages?

@jason_coleman @liminal_warmth Automem ftw

@liminal_warmth You are already using Claude Code to code, right? I would suggest giving it a soul .md file and some memory (I use AutoMem) and then building the server tool to connect to your favorite chat app. Then just keep building with it.

I have sacrificed another Saturday setting up a stupid OpenClaw instance and giving it lots of powers, and I still think that it's pretty useless. I gave it the eigenprompt for tone. I told it to be smarter. I gave it every API it wanted. I gave it direction. This toy is dumb.

50% of the people here are LYING about how they use AI and the other 50% aren't talking about it.

@nebujohnwp check DM

@vikasprogrammer Dates please, let me see if I am free to travel 😊

Who is up for a Claude meetup in HSR Layout, Bangalore?

@gayathrithedev check DM

@vikasprogrammer Date please 🙋‍♀️

How about this Saturday (21st March) at 11am - I can send location.

@zaidmukaddam @vercel Use instapods.com

How does one build and deploy long running agents on @vercel? The 800-second function timeout doesn't seem to help.
