Building Your First Plugin(s) – the Why and How


Wibowo Sulistio

Learn the basics of creating your first WordPress plugin, exploring development from simple projects to complex plugins, and uncovering monetization strategies and benefits for both developers and businesses.


Building a plugin allows you to grow your dev and non-dev skills and diversify your portofolio. It’s also a way to give back to the community, and when the circumstances are right, can also be a potential source of income and allow you to break away from the limits of selling your service/time as a freelancer, an employee or even an agency.

In this talk, you can learn the basics of how to create your first plugin(s), from something simple to something more complex, with concrete examples from plugins I’ve built. You can also learn about some of the monetization options available.
