What if WordPress was built for Users not Developers – Create not Learn

What if the WordPress site editor was designed around what you want to do, not how WordPress is built?

In this video I walk through Create Not Learn, an experimental plugin that explores one possible answer.

It uses everyday words, starts from tasks rather than menus, and keeps the complex tools out of the way until you need them.

We’re using it to test ideas with real people, and the ones that hold up best get proposed back to WordPress core.

It’s still a work in progress, so expect rough edges. That’s why I’d love you to give it a try and tell me in the comments what works for you and what doesn’t.
