Using Jetpack to Accelerate WordPress Development

[Geoff:] I've built a fair number of WordPress sites in my day. It's been my go-to since the 2.x-ish days because it works for any site, big or small. That's the sort of solution and flexibility you like to have as a freelancer.

One of the many things we use Jetpack for here on CSS-Tricks is all of its features related to social media integration.

There is even more than that, but let's dig into these three as we use them.… Read article
