Live Coding a WooCommerce Mini-Plugin

Join me for a live coding session, while I try to develop a custom, commercial WooCommerce plugin in less than 1 hour.

Hosted by Rodolfo Melogli

Session overview

Are you ready to see live WooCommerce plugin development in action?

Join me for an exclusive coding session where I’ll attempt to create a fully functional, custom WooCommerce plugin in under 1 hour! Whether you’re a developer looking to sharpen your skills, a freelancer searching for new insights, or a business owner eager to learn how to customize WooCommerce for your store, this event has something for everyone.

During this hands-on session, you’ll see my entire workflow, from brainstorming the plugin idea to writing clean, efficient code, all while managing real-world challenges like time constraints and unexpected bugs. Along the way, I’ll share coding tips, best practices for WooCommerce plugin development, and answer any live questions you have.

No matter your experience level, you’ll walk away with a better understanding of the development process, and maybe even the inspiration to create your own custom plugin. And of course, there will be plenty of insights into how to bring your own plugin ideas to life.

Don’t miss this chance to learn, code, and connect with the WooCommerce community in real time!

Author, WooCommerce expert and WordCamp speaker, Rodolfo has worked as an independent WooCommerce freelancer since 2011. His goal is to help entrepreneurs and developers overcome their WooCommerce nightmares. Rodolfo loves travelling, chasing tennis and soccer balls and, of course, wood fired oven pizza.
