State of the WordState of the Word This is the annual report given by Matt Mullenweg, founder of WordPress at WordCamp US. It looks at what we’ve done, what we’re doing, and the future of WordPress. https://wordpress.tv/tag/state-of-the-word/. 2022 

How many people attended the State of the Word either in person or online? Learn was mentioned and WordPress Playground is now live. All the content on Learn now has a button in the sidebarSidebar A sidebar in WordPress is referred to a widget-ready area used by WordPress themes to display information that is not a part of the main content. It is not always a vertical column on the side. It can be a horizontal rectangle below or above the content area, footer, header, or any where in the theme. that links directly to it. This makes it easier to spin up sites for online workshops and lesson plans. Learners can also use them in courses and tutorials.
