I am opening this ticket to track work on converting the Press This feature to using the REST API. Press This is a compact JavaScript App available under tools that can be launched from the Dashboard, or from a browser's bookmarks/bookmark bar: [[Image(https://cl.ly/0u1F2Y1z2e0r/Press_This_2016-10-18_09-57-10.jpg)]] Press This communicates with WordPress via custom wp-ajax endpoints as well as by submitting form data directly to `post.php` via ajax mirroring what the wp post editor does. The goal here would be to switch all server interactions over to using the REST API: * Saving posts in `submitPost`, include handling to redirect the user (to the login page) similar to current code * Creating new categories in `saveNewCategory` I've started work on this locally and will post a POC soon!
