Block Test Patterns

Rich Tabor explains why block patterns are the future of page building in WordPress. He also describes what a Block Patterns API may look like. 🏗️

Right now you can copy whole templated sections of block patterns from Munir Kamal‘s block template library at Gutenberg Hub and paste them in any site’s block editor. There’s a Chrome browser extension to make it easier to use the block template library inside WordPress.

Nick Hamze has a nifty Chrome extension too —Detective Wapuu — for identifying blocks on any site you visit. 🕵️

WordPress.com is using block patterns in a templated Page Layouts feature now.
