Did you know that WPCOM runs its own data centers?
Two cool tidbits:
1. Every site is replicated in real-time to a second data center in a different region.
2. If your site sees a traffic burst, our custom resource management auto scales to 100+ workers.

The new locking tools coming to WordPress allow you to create a pattern where only text and media can be modified by a user. It lists the content in the sidebar and makes a composite block seem like a single custom built block for easy and controlled editing.

One of my favorite latest Gutenberg features is fluid type that — hopefully — "just works". It's available for testing in 13.8.

Exploring Query Loop blocks again this morning and designed this simple layout in a few minutes. It makes good use of block spacing, but all Core blocks and no CSS. 💪
Planning to record more of these little #WordPress explorations. Let me know what you think!

There are a ton of ways to set up a local development environment for WordPress in 2022. So many in fact, it can be confusing. So I created a video to help you get set up in the most optimal way to start building with WordPress and Gutenberg.

There's more to discover and share. We are in an exciting phase of refinement and connecting many of the dots painted over the last couple releases as we start looking towards Phase 3.

I'm personally looking forward to when you could just copy and paste blocks between platforms like you do with patterns!

This is governed by both the locking mechanisms of blocks and the ability to modify what tools blocks expose in the first place, including presets for the design tools that can be set contextually. This works both globally and on a per block type basis.

The efforts of the last couple releases have gone into both expanding and contracting the customization options. This means that while new tools are introduced, we are also adding and refining the mechanisms to restrict what is editable, what can be changed, and in which ways.

Speaking of patterns, during contributor day a few people gathered to discuss how we could connect patterns with semantic schemas. The gist of the proposal is captured in this issue and it could be pretty exciting:

There's a suggestion to expand this to support a postType attribute on the pattern, so the experience can be tailored to any specific custom post type together with the block type context.

Did you know you could place a pattern in a folder titled /patterns within a theme and they'd get automatically registered? It's also possible to add a block type attribute which would automatically enable a modal flow to choose a starting point when creating new pages.
