Gutenberg is cool, but I feel like I’m spending a lot of time aimlessly moving my mouse around hoping that I’ll hover in the right place to make the right icon appear. Still feels a little clunky to me. Just the slightest hint of a border helps a ton. #WordPress

Making some progress on my #react – based #WordPress website. I’m REALLY coming to like React.

And, of course, as a double-whammy, I’m also finally getting around to learning how to customize Gutenberg. #WordPress

I’m REALLY digging the WP-CLI + React combo. I just built out an entire menu in WordPress, and it updated my React site without touching my mouse.

My website is such a gross misrepresentation of who I am today. It’s crazy how much you can change professionally in just a few years. I am FINALLY finding some time to rework it, and naturally, I’m re-building it as a React app using WordPress.

Building a WordPress theme with React is such a different workflow. Things that are trivial in WordPress are significant challenges in the WordPress API. And since I’m not keen on installing tons of plugins, I find myself building endpoints left and right. It’s fun, honestly.
