Let's Build Websites with modern WordPress — Hands-On Session
Want to build websites with modern WordPress? Come practice with us.
***
What happens during the session?
We pick a real website section together — a banner, a team section, a pricing table — from a live site or a Figma file
We reproduce it using WordPress's new block editor (Gutenberg & FSE)
We work in pairs — two people, one laptop, building together
Good to know:
Spots are limited to 6 — small enough to have real conversations and make real connections
Stuck on something? Someone in the group will be happy to help
Who is it for?
Entrepreneurs, freelancers, developers, designers, or anyone curious about building websites with modern WordPress
Some WordPress experience is helpful — no previous experience with the new editor needed
What to bring?
Your laptop with a local WordPress install — we recommend LocalWP, it's free and takes 5 minutes to set up
A block theme activated (Twenty Twenty-Five works perfectly)
What is "modern WordPress"?
WordPress has evolved from a simple blog editor into a full site design tool called Gutenberg & Full Site Editing (FSE). You can now build every part of your website — header, footer, templates, page layouts — using visual drag-and-drop blocks, without touching a single line of code.
This makes heavy page builders like Elementor unnecessary: no bloat, no plugin dependency.
Modern WordPress loads only the styles each page actually needs, resulting in faster, lighter sites — and because clean code and speed are exactly what Google rewards, your SEO improves naturally too.
Most WordPress users haven't made the jump yet — this meetup is the place to start.
