Why is the new Gutenberg editor so narrow, and how to make it wider?

by

I’m beginning to like Gutenberg, but I find it too narrow, particularly when working with the ‘Columns’ block. Why is it so narrow, and can it safely be made wider? I could try doing so with CSS, but I thought it best to ask first, to avoid potential trouble.

This worked for me, add this to the end of your themes functions.php file:

add_action('admin_head', 'wp_blocks_fullwidth');

function wp_blocks_fullwidth() {
    echo '<style>
        .wp-block {
            max-width: unset;
         }
    </style>';
}
