Rather than build out the CMS functionality of the application, we keep going down this gutenberg path. While its a beautiful system, and I applaud all the work on gutenberg, it should have always been a plugin.

The very first thing we do is turn off gutenberg every time, opting instead for robust custom post type/taxonomies/fields in an effort to build a content management flow that does the opposite of what the gutenberg editor does – allow content managers to do their work without having to make a single design decision.

We use WordPress for robust enterprise sites, we could never, ever deliver a gutenberg powered site. All our hard work would be trashed within weeks.

Less is always more, guys.
