Add Live Preview explanation to /from-wordpress-to-statamic #1505

The live preview capability is a big feature worth mentioning in the Gutenberg section. Clients and content managers have grown to like the instant design feedback, and review that Gutenberg provides.

Providing a .gif of a text update would really excite those non devs/content managers.

Does Gutenberg have live preview? Is this one of those "win-on-the-statamic-side" things?

No, Wordpress does something quite annoying for developers... The page builder lets you add react blocks that let you modify text/images/settings directly on the block/page builder. So you are, in a way, live editing the page. It's a nightmare to create and maintain custom blocks, especially for non react devs.
