Playing with the new Gutenberg WordPress editor and I think it is pretty beautiful

One of the things I really like about #Gutenberg editor is that I won't have to cram content in the post meta just so that I can have a rudimentary page builder for easier customer usage. Not the primary usage of Gutenberg but a helpful one πŸ™‚ #WordPress

Excited for @WordPress's Gutenberg layout editor. My theme doesn't support it now, but it should provide a ton of flexibility going forward. No more shortcode hacks for layout changes.

All that said, it's honestly super exciting to see all the positive reactions from the huge variety of WordPress site owners who've already taken the plunge. 😊

    Have you seen the reviews in plugin repository? Before many of them get deleted?

    • Ahmad Awais

      I think most of the reviews there have more to do with emotion than actual bug reports. But I have only read a few.

  • ikzoektim

    I have to admit, the code gutenberg spits out is pretty HTML. Unlike the other builders out there that are the worst addition you can ‘plugin’ to a blogtool/cms you can think of. And I don’t mind that this could very well mean that we get to see better wordpress premium themes that people can buy and developers/ front end developers can actually work with. But PLEASE done force this on us…
