WordPress Development Meetup : Gutenberg - where do we start?

Details

This month we welcome Nicola Heald who is to joining us to talk about getting started with Gutenberg.

She'll tell us the easiest way to get writing Gutenberg blocks with modern JavaScript tools. We'll cover setting up a development environment, the structure of blocks, writing a simple block with HTML output and an editing UI, and how to style the block. Also: links to lots of resources to continue your journey!

Nicola works at Automattic helping out with Gutenberg, mainly focusing on oEmbed integration at the moment. Previously she was at IBM, HP, and Canonical.
