Carlos Longarela (@carloslongarela) – WordPress user profile

Bio

Backend developer since the late 90s, I started with ASP, but soon I was convinced by the advantages of PHP, I began to specialize in web optimization. From the backend, SQL queries, caching systems of the web server, DNS, code optimization, etc., to the optimization of the frontend, either in JavaScript, CSS, or images that load a web, domain sharding, CDN.
WordPress is my base framework for most of my developments.

Interests

Web development, both backend and server administration, as well as frontend. Learning a little more about WordPress every day and contributing to the community as much as I can.

WordPress Origin Story

I started using WordPress to develop small websites in my work, at that time as a blog, when it was time to properly manage my project https://www.fotodng.com I decided to move all the development ‘by hand’ to a WordPress system with plugins developed for that purpose. It was then that I began to discover the power of WordPress as a framework for all types of development, its API, hooks, etc, since then, a few years ago, I use WordPress in almost all the developments that my freelance clients ask me to do.
