Hi Steve, In our WordPress 101 videos, we're just using a clean install of WordPress, out-of-the-box, with no plugins. When WordPress 5.0 was released on December 6, 2018, it included the all-new Block Editor (which was code-named, “Gutenberg”). If your site is powered by WordPress 5.0 or newer, you already have the Block Editor. No plugin necessary. If your site is running WordPress 5.0 or newer, but you don't SEE the Block Editor whenever you edit a post or page, then it's possible it's been disabled, likely by someone else who built or manages your site, or by a 3rd-party plugin (like the Classic Editor plugin), or even by your theme. That said, there is a Gutenberg plugin, but it's only intended for use by adventurous site owners who want to test very latest, bleeding-edge features being developed by the Gutenberg team. With each new version of WordPress, the latest features from the Gutenberg plugin are rolled into WordPress itself, so again... there is no need to install a Gutenberg plugin in order to use the Block Editor. In our video tutorial, “What is Gutenberg?” we explain the new editor in more detail, and the remaining videos in our WordPress 101 course will show you how to use blocks to create pages and posts. After you've completed WordPress 101, you can take a deeper dive with our “Introduction to Gutenberg” course. Hope this helps!
