Gutenberg Showcase: Custom WordPress Blocks for Amnesty International, by Big Bite
Channel: WordPress VIP
Date: 2018-09-13

Get a quick overview of what it’s like to build new sites quickly and publish and manage content in Amnesty International’s new WordPress-based platform launching in September. The project features the new WordPress editor, currently available as the Gutenberg plugin.

Enterprise WordPress development agency Big Bite built an entirely new site platform for Nobel Peace Prize Winner Amnesty International, with the Gutenberg plugin, and therefore the new WordPress editor, as its foundation. They focused on developing custom blocks and a core theme that serve as the heart of Amnesty’s digital efforts moving forward. More than a new site, this is a framework for applying consistent brand identity, design, and user experience standards to many new sites and for allowing creators to spin up new, powerful sites quickly and with ease. And as a part of Big Bite’s and Amnesty’s shared commitment to give back to the community, large parts of the project will be released as open source components for anyone to use.
