PRAISE

“ - Gutenberg provides a less distracting experience with more screen space.

- Easier to use for beginners. -Brian Jackson

“I think Gutenberg is an improvement for casual users who like to write their content in the WordPress Editor.

-Colin Newcomer, WPLift

“'Right now WordPress makes you learn a lot of concepts... [Gutenberg lets you] learn it once and use it everywhere.' 

-Alex Denning

“Overall we were quite impressed with the new Gutenberg WordPress editor, it’s definitely something we are excited about for the future. 

-Brian Jackson, Kinsta

“The best part of the Gutenberg Project is that everyone can help. Calling upon the expertise of the WordPress community, the team behind this new editor are reaching out for assistance.

- Andy Holland

CRITICISM

“One of the things that we at Yoast worry about is the accessibility of Gutenberg.

- Joost de Valk

“Are we competing with Medium or Squarespace? Have we decided?

-Chris Lema

“It’s very powerful already but clearly unpolished and so it’s hard to know what’s incomplete or a bug.

-Mark Root-Wiley

“Doesn’t support responsive columns yet. We really hope this is coming… It is definitely time for columns to be in core!

-Brian Jackson

“Testing Gutenberg Outside of the WordPress' Developer Community is Critical to its Success

-Sarah Gooding, WP Tavern
