Yesterdays the core team released Gutenberg version 2.2 with a big new feature: a "Columns" block, introducing nested blocks. Matias Ventura writes: "it is labeled experimental, though, as it needs further work and has some browser hiccups." – There are – again – a ton of other changes in this release. Matias added sections to his change log and added links to the respective Github issues. This is important if one wants to research the history of a decision.

Imagine #Gutenberg built on this, where you get a familiar JSX syntax with all the goodness of Polymer 3. In fact, refactoring the whole JavaScript libraries array in WordPress. #Imaginehttps://t.co/VpNLPcA7n3

Along with the button block (and any block that allows you to combine colors), the new editor will warn you when you choose a combination that's hard to read. #a11y#WordPress #Gutenberg #GutenbergUserTips pic.twitter.com/2tqD49wuqJ
