We are excited to announce our next speaker for WordCamp Kochi 2018 – Gaurav Pareek

They will be speaking at WordCamp Kochi on the topic – Adventures in updating my WordPress theme for Gutenberg support
Gutenberg is one of the most important changes coming up in the WordPress ecosystem. It replaces the existing TinyMCE editor, and gives a much needed face-lift to the content editing experience in WordPress.
In their session, Gaurav will share their experiences with adding support for Gutenberg-specific features to one of their existing themes, and will be sharing tips on how to make your theme Gutenberg friendly.
