WordPress 6.0 Roadmap
There’s a lot of great items in the roadmap that will impact block themes:
- Embrace style alternates driven by json variations (35619)
- Complete the scope of global styles. Introduce easy export & import; support for revisions; etc. (27941, 38199)
- Introduce various new blocks to power the display of comments on themes. (34994, 38107)
- Incorporate more definitive responsive handling (min/max containers) into the current flex-based tools. (34641)
- Introduce responsive fonts with good defaults. (33543)
- Add a Web Fonts API connected with global styles. (37140)
Open Floor
We discussed whether this meeting should continue, now that block themes are in core and the format of the #core-editor chat may be changing and it could make most sense to focus our discussion there.
