Viptor Says: Gutenberg Hub Launches a New WordPress Theme Directory

Hello, fellow WordPress developers, users, and lovers. It’s Viptor back again, coming with the first news of 2022! First of all, I hope you all had fantastic holidays, and you took your well-deserved time off. For me, the holidays were a time for reflection and putting things into perspective for the future.

Undoubtedly, 2021 gave me everything I could ever want and more. It was a fantastic year for everyone at my WordPress development agency. We conquered new heights and celebrated many victories in our WordPress journey. If you want to know more, I suggest you read our year in a review blog post.

For me, getting back to working on the blog is absolute bliss. Although I genuinely enjoyed the traditional holidays most of you on Earth celebrate during this time of the year, I missed my job. Hunting and reporting WordPress news is what makes my heart smile. Therefore, I’m more than excited to take over the blog yet again.

In today’s blog post, I’ll be talking about the new WordPress themes directory that Gutenberg Hub launched recently. We’ll discuss everything about it so you are as prepared as you can for the newest WordPress release.

What Is New in The Themes Directory?

Both my WordPress development agency and I are looking forward to the release of WordPress 5.9, which is slated to happen at the end of this month. The new themes directory by Gutenberg Hub is coming at the perfect time to keep up with everything new happening in the WordPress world.

Every web user and website owner wants to be able to easily find a theme that looks great and is compatible with his business. That is exactly what the re-imagined themes directory is all about – making the process of finding the best WordPress themes a breeze.

This way you’ll save yourself the difficulties of browsing in the standard WordPress themes directory where things tend to get overcomplicated. Munir Kamal announced the appearance of the new directory on the 3rd of January this year. It catalogs the block themes hosted on WordPress.org.

The idea behind it is to experience the themes on the official directory in a new, more convenient, and helpful way – something my WordPress development agency finds thrilling. Kamal hopes that his innovation sparks a discussion about improving the official, and the unofficial directory.

Block themes are colorful and fun, they offer interesting typography, styles, and patterns. If all of this is related to the themes in the directory, there will be no need to install and test multiple themes before deciding which one to use.

The user interface is kept as close to the one at the official WordPress theme directory as possible so it is easier to use. The free themes from the directory are displayed on the home page. Kamal aims to display all of the features that each theme offers.

My WordPress development agency believes that this is a great improvement. While you’re browsing the themes, you’ll see things like color schemes, social images, typography, button and block styles.

The Future of The WordPress Directory

It is undeniable that Kamal has done some wonders to the directory. However, the themes still lack a preview experience. The future of the directory seems bright since Kamal intends to include templates and patterns which will make it more useful. Since the new WordPress 5.9 will launch a block theming feature, new horizons will open up to the directory.
