Making The Internet of Things WordPress Smart

Popular services like IFTTT and the rise of home automation have made it easy to connect physical devices to the internet to help make them more efficient. But why can’t we build integrations in the opposite direction? In this talk, we’ll explore ways to get data out of WordPress and create meaningful integrations with physical devices, then build the integrations and test them together! What if you could setup a red light turn on if your site ever went down? Or maybe you want to play a sound every time you receive a new order in WooCommerce? Maybe you just want to push data from your smart things into WordPress – like create a graph of current temperatures over time on your site. All of these things are not only possible, but fairly easy to setup – all you need to know is where to look!
