This is a short tutorial where I'd like to show you how to make a search field in your plugin or theme using WP REST API. This search field includes nice autocomplete, but doesn't use any jQuery as one might expect.

It's been a long time coming. I don't need any specific level of security here on this blog, but I want it to be fast. I tried quite a few SSL certificates over the years, here and for clients' sites, including ZeroSSL, RapidSSL, Comodo, Symantec, Let's Encrypt of course, and some others which names I can't recall.
If you ever googled anything related to “how to speed up a website” you probably noticed that there are few recommendations that are repeated almost in every article over and over again.
