Getting started with WordPress Calypso
If you’re not familiar with Calypso, you might want to start cozying up to the native desktop app sooner, rather than later. I made a small prediction that “WordPress” was going to make a more concentrated effort to push the native app experience on us over the next year, and based on Mullenweg’s 2016 State of the Word, it looks like it’s going to happen.
Using Calypso
One problem with web-based WordPress admin is, it’s slow.
Even with a fast internet connections and powerful web hosts, nothing will match the speed and fluidity of a native app. If you look at the apps you use on your iPhone, where you don’t even think about trying the mobile web version, the experience is effortless. Apps like banking, e-mail, social, and even blogging all run silky smooth. It’s that smooth experience Matt + Automattic + volunteers are going focus on.
Get it at apps.wordpress.com/desktop
Where to get Calypso
You can download Mac/Windows/Linux flavors of Calypso over on apps.WordPress.com. Links to the open source repositories on Github can also be found there, if you fancy yourself following along with the development of the apps. Side note: I really enjoy
