WordPress powers a massive amount of the internet – over 30% of all websites run on WordPress! This popularity is a testament to its power and flexibility, and a major evolution happened in late 2018 that dramatically changed how content is created: the introduction of the Gutenberg Editor, now simply known as the Block Editor.
The shift from the familiar Classic Editor to Gutenberg was significant, and initially met with resistance from many WordPress users. However, after a year of using the Gutenberg Editor, many are discovering its incredible potential. It's a huge time-saver and offers so much more design flexibility – all without needing to know how to code!
