The Classic Editor is WordPress’s traditional editing interface for adding or modifying text, images, multimedia, hyperlinks, and other site content. It provides a familiar, word-processor-like experience instead of the block-based approach used by Gutenberg. section 2.3
WordPress can use either the Classic Editor or Gutenberg, also called the WordPress block editor. The Classic Editor plugin makes it easy to switch between them. Choose the Classic Editor when following workflows designed for the traditional interface, while retaining Gutenberg instructions as an alternative. section 2.3 section 1.0

A beginner building an “Instant Pot Recipes” practice website can install the Classic Editor plugin and use the traditional editing experience. The same site can instead use Gutenberg with parallel instructions. section 1.0
