All Things Gutenberg
Get to Know the WordPress Block Editor
The new WordPress block editor (codename “Gutenberg”) has arrived!
This giant leap forward is all about empowerment. No coding chops? No sweat! With the block editor, anyone can create rich content and beautiful layouts with zero HTML or CSS required.
If you’re a developer, this is your chance to go all-in on new technologies and better code. The Gutenberg project is built primarily with React, which lets WordPress developers finally use technologies like webpack, ES6, and JSX in their day-to-day work.
TL;DR: The brand new Gutenberg editing experience changes the way you create content in WordPress. It’s a big deal, and we want to help you embrace the innovation.
