Our WordPress Contributions

rtCamp's WordPress roots extends back to the success it had with a popular technical blog started in 2006. WordPress' open community and culture paved way to start rtCamp.

Since then rtCamp has only worked on WordPress while encouraging every rtCamper to contribute back to WordPress core and community regularly.

We have a WordPress core contribution from an rtCamper for every single WordPress release since version 3.6 right upto the latest version 4.4.
