WordPress is continually under development. Currently, work is underway on Phase 2 of the Gutenberg project. The Gutenberg project is a reimagination of the way we manage content on the web. Its goal is to broaden access to web presence, which is a foundation of successful modern businesses. Phase 1 was the new block editor, which was released in WordPress 5.0, you can see that in action here. Throughout 2020 there is a focus on full site editing as we continue to progress through Phase 2.
项目执行主任Josepha Haden在这篇文章中概述了该项目在2020年的7个优先处理事项:
- 为导航菜单创建区块。
- Build a WordPress.org directory for discovering blocks, and a way to seamlessly install them.
- 为用户提供一种选择插件和主题自动更新的方式。
- Provide a way for themes to visually register content areas, and expose them in Gutenberg.
- 升级小工具编辑区域和定制器以支持区块。
- 为用户提供一种选择自动更新主要核心版本的方式。
- Form a Triage team to tackle our 6,500 open issues on Trac.
