There I said it. Let's just do it.

What aspects would Mesh introduce into Gutenberg that Gutenberg doesn't offer out of the box? A grid-like layout? Layout placeholders that can be used in theme?

aaronware commented 6 years ago

No blocks in gutenberg are resizable that I am aware of. We'd introduce that aspect of it.

strarsis commented 6 years ago

Wouldn't this feature be so useful that it should go into Gutenberg itself?

aaronware commented 6 years ago

Super fair point and I agree 💯. But we can proof of concept in Mesh and get something stable. At that point we can align with the Gutenberg team. We still have to get UX approval from the leads and have something worth showing and merging.

With recent WordPress release (4.9,8) a message is shown in WordPress backend for either using the new Gutenberg editor or keeping the Classic Editor (which additionally requires explicitly installing a dedicated plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/)).

@aaronware: Could Mesh also divide the whole Gutenberg editor in multiple columns or rows? Having a columns block would be rather content in the page than assigning content to a "slot" provided by a theme.
