One of the things that we’ve been thinking about doing is providing even more roundups for those that can’t keep up-to-date with all that is going on – and one of the larger areas of growth in the WordPress ecosystem are the incredible amount of WordPress plugins and themes that are released and updated every single day.
And since we’re all about doing things daily, well, we might as well give it a go!
You’ll find great roundups that list the “best of” and “top 10 __________” all over the place but what you don’t find is many that will share simply the newest ones and the ones that are being updated.
So every day we’ll roundup the newest plugins and themes released via WordPress.org as well as the ones that received an update within the last week.
Enjoy!
