Gutenberg

Gutenberg is the new editor for WordPress. It is named after Johannes Gutenberg, who invented a printing press with movable type more than 500 years ago.

Gutenberg is a comprehensive reimagination of content creation and editing both in terms of user interface design and structural approach. Rather than treating an article as a blob of content where selected segments (words, sentences, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, captions etc) are treated as units of a larger whole, each segment is its own “block” which can be assigned a type, moved around, and handled with relative independence.
