Bebo (aka WordPress 5.0) is ready for download. As of writing it has already been downloaded over 100,000 times. Some of the fresh new features include:
- A new content editor that enables creating content with blocks – WordPress is here to simplify the process, not the outcome. This new editing experience provides a more consistent treatment of design as well as content.
- A stunning new theme called 2019 — ready for blocks! Twenty Nineteen features custom styles for the blocks available by default in 5.0. Featuring ample whitespace, and modern sans-serif headlines paired with classic serif body text, Twenty Nineteen is built to be beautiful on the go. It uses system fonts to increase loading speed.
- The Classic Editor plugin restores the previous WordPress editor and the Edit Post screen. It lets you keep using plugins that extend it, add old-style meta boxes, or otherwise depend on the previous editor.
Here are the 16 core content blocks you can play with today. And there will be many, many more soon!
You can download the latest version in your dashboard or wait for your host to do an auto-update.
And with a Toronto or Vaughan Library card you can access the new WordPress 5 Essential Training by Morton Rand-Hendriksen for free!
