How it works

How it works

This plugin revolutionizes the Gutenberg editing experience by introducing groundbreaking visible guidelines for blocks .
These guidelines, seamlessly integrated into the WordPress backend, serve as visual aids that dramatically enhance the readability and organization of blocks. With these clear visual cues, users can effortlessly identify block edges, alignment points, and content boundaries, leading to an unparalleled level of precision and control. This enhanced visual clarity not only simplifies block manipulation but also elevates the overall user experience, making block editing a breeze.

Context

Gutenberg is the code name for the new block based editor introduced in WordPress 5. It replaces the classic WordPress editor which is built on TinyMCE.

It is a significant change in how content is created.

With Gutenberg, you can add multiple media types and arrange the layout within the editor using blocks.
WordPress is changing the editor to make it more approachable to non-coders.

The main problem is that: blocks backend Ui is not as clear and intuitive as it should be.
