And this experience contradicts many of the myths we hear floating around about decoupled WordPress.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://go.wpvip.com/request-decoupled-white-paper">NEW White paper: What to know before you go decoupled</a></p> <p><button style="font-family: 'Noto Sans','Open Sans','Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; text-transform: uppercase; font-color: #ffffff; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; border: none; background-color: #c29c69; padding: 11px 24px 11px 24px;"><a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://go.wpvip.com/request-decoupled-white-paper"><span style="color: #ffffff;">READ NOW</span></a></button></p> <h3>Myth #1: A decoupled front end will make my website load faster</h3> <p>Not necessarily! While an approach that includes flat files and a strong caching solution might improve load times compared to other options, WordPress VIP includes multiple layers of caching to make sure your editors and producers, as well as your audience, can have a lightning-fast experience using WordPress templates.</p> <h3>Myth #2: It’s easier to hire React developers than WordPress developers</h3> <p>With the release of WordPress 5.0 in 2018, the Gutenberg block editor is powered largely by React, so WordPress developers are React developers! While we’re always conscious of the “flavor-of-the-month” effect when it comes to JavaScript frameworks and libraries, the WordPress community has invested significant time and effort into React. If you need help getting your organization started with React and WordPress, take a look at the list of <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/partners/agency-partners/">WordPress VIP Featured Partner agencies</a> for some ideas about where to start.</p> <h3>Myth #3: Decoupled WordPress is more secure</h3> <p>At WordPress VIP, we’re the leaders in making sure WordPress is scalable and secure for enterprise use. How do we do it? By making sure all of your custom development and third-party integrations meet our high standards, and that they follow best practices for WordPress development.</p> <h3>Myth #4: A decoupled approach provides more control over the user experience</h3> <p>Going decoupled unplugs the power of the WordPress Gutenberg block editor from the look and feel of your site, taking control away from your content production team. That disconnect also makes live previews difficult to engineer, further frustrating teams that have to reinvent the wheel to drive content across the decoupled gap.</p> <h3>Myth #5 – Decoupled architecture works best with an API-first CMS</h3> <p>WordPress is the ideal platform to complement modern technologies and tooling. Thanks to its ubiquity as the software that <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/content_management">powers more than 36% of the web</a>, there is a global community of expert developers constantly advancing its capabilities. One example of this community’s response to the demand for modern tooling is the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://www.wpgraphql.com/">WPGraphQL plugin</a>, which makes it easy to use GraphQL with WordPress. Our client Accuweather <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/2020/02/06/how-accuweather-leverages-decoupled-wordpress/">uses a similar solution</a> to deliver localized content from multiple data sources in alerts, landing pages, videos, articles, and more. And they still benefit from the reliability, stability, and scalability of enterprise WordPress.</p> <p>While it may be tempting to go fully decoupled, it’s important to have a complete understanding of the benefits and drawbacks of whatever architecture you choose.

So here are 10 highlights to celebrate on the way to an even more fruitful 2020.</p> <p><strong>1. The crew grew. </strong>Our parent company, Automattic, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://techcrunch.com/2019/08/12/verizon-is-selling-tumblr-to-wordpress-parent-automattic/">acquired Tumblr</a>!</p> <p><strong>2. Salesforce took notice. </strong>Automattic closed a new <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://ma.tt/2019/09/series-d/">$300 million Series D</a>, with <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://www.salesforce.com/company/ventures/">Salesforce Ventures</a> taking the entire round.</p> <p><img class="aligncenter jetpack-lazy-image" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238im_/https://i1.wp.com/ma.tt/files/2019/09/automattic_salesforce_ventures-2.png?fit=1200%2C667&ssl=1" alt width="863" height="480" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://i1.wp.com/ma.tt/files/2019/09/automattic_salesforce_ventures-2.png?fit=1200%2C667&ssl=1&is-pending-load=1" srcset="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7"><noscript><img class="aligncenter" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238im_/https://i1.wp.com/ma.tt/files/2019/09/automattic_salesforce_ventures-2.png?fit=1200%2C667&ssl=1" alt="" width="863" height="480"/></noscript></p> <p><strong>3. Gutenberg closed in on Phase 2</strong>. Since releasing the first phase of Gutenberg last year, over 50 million posts have been made in the new block editor. At WordCamp US, Automattic’s CEO Matt Mullenweg shared some of the latest and greatest <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://poststatus.com/matt-mullenweg-state-of-the-word-2019/">features and blocks</a> built in the Gutenberg framework and highlighted an example of <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LezbkeV059Q&feature=youtu.be&t=1440">inline newsletter creation</a> built by VIP partner <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/partner/rtcamp/">rtCamp</a> for Mortgage Bankers Association.</p> <p><strong>4. Enterprises adopted custom blocks</strong>. As Gutenberg development work continued on the home front, WordPress VIP partners like <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/partner/big-bite/">Big Bite</a> and clients like <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/case-studies/news-corp-australia-xwp/">News Corp</a> drove adoption of Gutenberg in the enterprise, building blocks that delight WordPress users and news consumers, too.

We’re officially poised to disrupt</strong>. Did you know WordPress VIP competes in a $10B market? CEO Nick Gernert took the stage at WordCamp US to talk about why this open source software is ideal for enterprises. You can see the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238/https://wpvip.com/2019/11/01/disrupting-the-enterprise-nick-gernert-wcus-2019/">full recording of his talk</a>, where he shows how clients like Capgemini, Hachette Book Group, and News Corp Australia take advantage of the agility, ownership, flexibility, and simplicity of WordPress at scale.</p> <p><strong>6.

This talk was delivered on November 13 at BigWP NYC, a gathering of developers and product people who work on WordPress applications at scale.</p> <p>Instead of reinventing the wheel, Human Made started with the blocks already available in Gutenberg, and customized from there. Rather than spending time and effort building blocks from scratch, they were able to give clients more control of design elements and a better editing experience.</p> <p>Any Gutenberg block might turn out to be reusable on another page, or in another layout. In one example they shared, the Human Made team found that an element built for a site’s homepage could double as a recirculation module at the bottom of single posts or pages, too.</p> <p>Watch the talk:</p> <p><span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="900" height="507" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200418222238if_/https://www.youtube.com/embed/HXT-JR1Z-AQ?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;"></iframe></span></p> <p>BigWP is our enterprise WordPress meetup series, that brings together developers, business leads, and product people who work with high-scale WordPress applications every day.
