March 3, 2020 — “En esta ponencia explicaré cómo está afectando la implementación de Gutenberg desde la versión 5.0 de WordPress, pero desde tres puntos de vista diferentes:

– El de un desarrollador y su integración con los blocks/plugins.
– El de un usuario “final” que utiliza WordPress.
Complementaré la ponencia incluyendo slides con todo tipo de recursos disponibles para Gutenberg, es decir webs, artículos, plugins, bloques, etc..”

July 26, 2019 — In our last episode, dear campers, we learned about Custom Post Types (CPT’s) and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF’s) and why we need them. We had everything clear, right? Enter Gutenberg…
Until Gutenberg, we had to copy over content from one old post to the new. The other option is to use CPT’s and ACF’s. What’s the difference? When should you use one or the other… or BOTH?
In this session, we’ll take a quick review of CPT’s and ACF’s, then compare them to Gutenberg Blocks and Templates, and discuss when you should use each and why.

June 10, 2019 — Some people are intimidated by the Gutenberg editor. It is different than the classic editor. I’m here to tell you that the Gutenberg blocks are your friends!

April 9, 2019 — Vaishnavi Patel is sharing his understanding about using Gutenberg editor.

January 22, 2019 — We now think in blocks, this is the new “WordPress way”. In this talk you will learn how to build a block. We will cover creating a user interface in the new “Gutenberg” UI system, saving data and displaying it in the front-end. If you’re wondering what it means to build a custom block or extend a core block, this is for you.

This is a talk aimed at intermediate to advanced developers, who already know JavaScript somewhat deeply. Think of it as a getting started guide to a new way of working with WordPress that we’re just getting started learning how to work with.
