Here is a tutorial on using the WP-CLi. It has a focus on some of the security related tasks available.

Breakdance 2.1 beta is now available for testing. It includes a large number of fixes and enhancements. Some of the enhancements include the ability for third party template designers to allow template import in one click, a rewritten Image Element that has leaner output on the fronted and more options in the backend, and a new display condition variable.

GutenKit is a new block collection from Wpmet. It has a ton of features and was created from the start to work in the Site Editor. This video includes a GutenKit overview and a walk-through using the Pro version to create Custom Post Type templates. The strengths and areas needing improvement are shown and discussed.

The WordPress Five for the Future website has been redone using Gutenberg. It looks pretty sharp. I imagine it was done with core blocks and extra CSS.

I was asking about creating color palettes in the Core Framework Facebook group and the Realtime Colors site was suggested. What is cool about this site is that you can set your colors using the bar at the bottom of the page and the site applies the colors you’ve chosen. Hat tip to Zeik Sparrow for the suggestion.

Here is a tutorial from the Meta Box team on how to show upcoming events using Meta Box and Breakdance.

Riad Benguella shares some best practices and things to avoid when developing for Gutenberg. Overall it seems like a rear-guard fight to keep things lean.

WordPress had a “win” with Create Content Model, but instead of embracing it they labeled it an “oops”. I guess despite what some might want to think, WordPress is not acting like a startup. When an entrepreneur sees something stick they jump on it like a $20 bill being blown down the sidewalk. I like how Matt Medeiros subtly suggest that this kind of functionality in core is not really that outrageous or abnormal.

Joost has a new Progress Planner plugin. This is not a plugin for agencies and freelancers, but rather for bloggers, entrepreneurs, and DIY site owners. Progress Planner gamifies content creation and site maintenance tasks for people who aren’t necessarily “pros” and might need guidance. There is currently a beta of the free version in the WP plugin directory and they are planning a pro version for the future.
