With WordPress 6.2 released, this exploration seeks to explore the Site Editor as a design tool, asking folks to create a block theme without any code directly in the editor using the current tools. The aim is to both find gaps in functionality and to get feedback on the experience of using the Site Editor in this design centric way, as we look to expand the number of block themes.
The focus of this exploration is to think with a more open minded, “what can I build today?” approach. If you’ve never built a block theme, consider this an invitation to give it a try. Tooling has come a long way and the power of what’s being built is that it allows more folks to dive into the future (and present) of WordPress. For this experience, you’ll use the Create Block Theme plugin to facilitate the creation and export process so you can keep what you create! Feel free to read these brief instructions for how to get started or follow the steps below.
In the near future, expect a more formal call for testing once more, dedicated to some of the newer functionality being worked on as part of the remaining major phase 2 items.
