Five steps to using shortcode in Gutenberg editor

Gutenberg is an amazing WordPress built-in editor that allows users to create layouts using the drag-and-drop feature. Gutenberg editor replaces the WordPress WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor. One of the most popular features of WordPress is the shortcode, and plugin developers have integrated a custom shortcode panel to generate and include the shortcode in the WSIWYG editor.

In this tutorial, I will describe the steps to generate and include shortcodes in the Gutenberg editor. For this example, I am using the BWL Knowledgebase Manager WordPress plugin shortcode editor.
