<p>If you’re anything like me or my clients, you probably can’t think of anything you care less about than the Gutenberg block editor. If you’ve had a gutful of your website performance being unnecessarily penalised and/or causing presentation conflicts because of the forced block editor styles, then this this plugin is for you.</p>
<p>FYI: This plugin kills front-end block editor CSS for WordPress core, WooCommerce and the Storefront theme. You’re welcome.</p>
<p>It goes without saying (I’ll say it anyway) that if you rely on the block editor for front-end presentation, then steer clear of this plugin.</p>
<h3>How to use</h3>
<ul>
<li>Just activate this plugin, nothing to configure.</li>
<li>Get on with the rest of your day (optional).</li>
</ul>
<h3>How it works</h3>
<p>This plugin simply runs a function to dequeue the aforementioned Gutenberg styles from the front-end of your website. It does not interact with your database.</p>

<p>Harness the power of pre-processed CSS and minified JS in your theme or plugin, without any complicated installs or build tools. Simply tell WP Compiler where to find your source files and where to put the compiled results, then throw your install into Dev Mode. WP Compiler watches your source folders for you, and recompiles your CSS and JS on any file change. WP Compiler supports both SCSS and LESS precompilers for CSS, to suit anyone’s preference.</p>
<p>When you’re ready to launch a new site, just turn off Dev Mode, and your styles and javascript will be compiled & minimized and comments & source maps will be removed. With Dev mode disabled, Compiler will stop watching source directories, so there is no effect on site performance, but you can still apply a quick change at any time, by clicking the compile button in the admin toolbar.</p>
<p>WP Compiler relies on <a href="http://leafo.github.io/scssphp/" rel="nofollow ugc">scssphp</a>, <a href="http://lessphp.typesettercms.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">lessphp</a>, and <a href="https://www.minifier.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">minify</a>.<br />
Specific issues with the underlying compilation libraries should be submitted to their respective developers.</p>
