Summary

The development of the WordPress 5 site launched several months before the platform's official release, meaning the Block Editor remained only as a plugin at the time. However, it was already established that integrating the Site Editor within Gutenberg would be a viable strategy, allowing users to create fully functional websites directly from their content. This transition offered a new opportunity for developers to bring a more streamlined interface and better user experience to the CMS.

The implementation process started with a dedicated effort to redesign the existing website to fully utilize Gutenberg features. A specific goal was achieved with the creation of an initial project, which was later recognized as a significant milestone for this initiative. The final website launched on larsbudde.de, showcasing the successful migration of content from standard WordPress components to a modern, Gutenberg-focused framework.
