Something lacking in WordPress

Masaki Komagata @ FJORD, LLC

My name is komagata.

I work for a company called FJORD, LLC.

It’s very convenient, isn’t it?

• You can write blogs

• Make pages (CMS functionality)

• It’s easy to create themes (templates)

• There are plenty of plug-ins(If you Google it, you’ll find them)

• It can also be used like a database(custom fields)

Most of these actions can be completed using

WordPress alone.

There is no need for a programmer (me).

Wonderful.

However, the problem with WordPress is:

It dosen’t work with Heroku (a free server)

It dosen’t work with GAE (a free server)

“Why won’t WordPress work?”

Let’s talk about Ruby.

‘And so, innovative software is born’.
