WordPress aims to democratize publishing which got me thinking, what if a non-coder like myself could ever contribute to WordPress Core. Since the inception of this idea, I began working closely with the Core Team as well Design and Accessibility. Completing tasks such as testing, updating documentation, administrative work including leading a bug-scrub or bug-gardening are all great examples of contributions that don’t necessarily require you to know ‘how to code’. In this talk, I try to paint a picture of an universe where WordPress can thrive with contributions from con-coders and folks such as you and me. I also try to justify the significance of No-code contributions to WordPress and how it is powering the project.
