In reply to George.

Are you suggesting he abandons the boilerplate documentation, or that gutenberg itself should be abandoned?

In the case of the latter, I'm sorry to say that wordpress will almost definitely replace the current editor with gutenberg in a future version, the people at wordpress are very keen on that. Barring any great disaster this will happen sooner rather than later, so better that we jump on the bandwagon now and make it as good as it can be. And initiatives like this are very helpful to make it approachable to people that aren't in the gutenberg inner circle right now. So good job Ahmad!

Also, a 'few weeks'? Gutenberg has been in development for 6 months now.
