Questions that could be touched on:

Vice Versa?Should page builders continue to be their own interface or adapt and integrate into Gutenberg as a collection of blocks?Why would a user want to use both a page builder and Gutenberg on the same site? Would they want to?Should developers focus on developing for page builders, Gutenberg or neither?How are you using Gutenberg today? How are you using page builders today?How do we change our approach to building sites for clients, when they have this new level of control?When starting a new WordPress site, what considerations would you take when choosing between a page builder, Gutenberg or the classic editor? Which one would you choose?If you already use a page builder on your site, would you consider switching to Gutenberg?

June 3, 2018 — La revolución “industrial” ha llegado, el mundo de los builders ya estaba en plena ebullición, pero con la entrada de algunos nuevos, como Elementor o incluso el propio Guttemberg, la temperatura parece que ha subido al máximo. La intención de esta charla es por un lado hacer un breve repaso y pequeña comparativa de los builders más destacados y sus características y por otro enseñaros el que me tiene enamorado: Beaver Builder.

Beaver builder es un auténtico todo terreno, en el que (desde mi humilde entender) dos mundos tan antagónicos y tradicionalmente “enfrentados” como son el de desarrolladores o frontenders y builders, pueden por fin, darse la mano. Y que mejor forma de enseñar la potencia y calidad de código que podemos conseguir que con una demo real al mas puro estilo: Drag, Drop, Done 😉
