June 15, 2023 — This Hallway Hangout was a casual conversation about building block themes with a special focus on enhancements coming in WordPress 6.3 and those planned for 6.4. We also discussed common challenges and pain points, reviewed existing solutions, and identified new improvements to WordPress that make block theming easier for developers and users alike.

The session began with a brief demonstration of the changes coming to the Site Editor in 6.3, notably page management and new editing flows. If you have begun building block themes for clients or are interested in block theming, this session is especially for you.
