WordPress Origin Story
Post retirement from IT management at a major Canadian bank, I was looking for ways to go back to more hands on IT work (sooo much better than managing!). Tried playing with Python but life is too short to become a full stack developer.
Pre-retirement I had spent my darkest moments working on the concept for trickswithsticks, a site for beginning and intermediate knitters to grow their skills and for me to distribute my pattern designs. Found WordPress and the great Toronto WordPress community. Serendipity! Now the question is whether I prefer developing websites or developing knitting patterns?
