Speaker Spotlight: Matt Graham

Matt is a jack of all technical trades – development, devops, and he has a wire for pretty much anything. His day-to-day includes working on a start-up, troubleshooting WordPress sites and managing more servers than he thought he ever would. Helping people is what gets him up in the morning, and he uses his knowledge to help others reach their technology-related goals.

Matt will be speaking at 2:00pm in the Parliament room. He will be moderating a panel entitled, Page Builders in the Age of Gutenberg.

From the brains of several WordPressers comes a panel discussion on the use of page builders now that Gutenberg is in core.

Questions that could be touched on:

What does Gutenberg solve that Page Builders don’t? Vice Versa?
Should page builders continue to be their own interface or adapt and integrate into Gutenberg as a collection of blocks?
Why would a user want to use both a page builder and Gutenberg on the same site? Would they want to?
Should developers focus on developing for page builders, Gutenberg or neither?
How are you using Gutenberg today? How are you using page builders today?
How do we change our approach to building sites for clients, when they have this new level of control?
When starting a new WordPress site, what considerations would you take when choosing between a page builder, Gutenberg or the classic editor? Which one would you choose?
If you already use a page builder on your site, would you consider switching to Gutenberg?
