My Web Development Internship: Learning WordPress

Starting my web development internship at My Invented is a major step in gaining practical experience and understanding how the industry works. As a Web Development Intern, I have begun exploring WordPress development without writing code. This internship allows me to learn website creation, customization, and management using WordPress’s built-in tools. Check out my portfolio to see my projects & certifications, and more about my journey!

However, I quickly realized that WordPress offers a no-code approach, allowing users to create professional websites using themes, plugins, and built-in features. This was a new experience for me, and I was eager to learn how it works.
