We are excited to announce the next speaker at WordCamp Kochi 2018 – Hardeep Asrani!
Hardeep Asrani is a developer and Star Wars fan from Kanpur. He loves contributing to WordPress community in many ways, including support, themes, plugins and more. You can find him on Slack pretty much all the time exploring different parts of WordPress community.

If you have used WordPress recently, you would definitely have noticed the Gutenberg notification in the WordPress dashboard. Gutenberg is the brand new editor in WordPress which uses a concept called ‘blocks’ to build content, instead of the standard editor, and is all set to be merged in the WordPress core!
Hardeep will introduce all of you to the wonderful world of Gutenberg and blocks!
His talk will introduce the audience to Gutenberg, its history and its present state. Additionally, he will do a deep dive into the progress of Gutenberg, all its features, and all the possibilities it offers to developers.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg – there’s more to Gutenberg that meets the eye, and major changes are planned in upcoming phases. Hardeep will also delve into the upcoming phases of Gutenberg (especially Phase 2), and will share more details on how people are doing amazing projects with the same.
