A question about the direction of Gutenberg when it is in core
-
I am going to ask a question as a non-developer, perhaps as a typical user of Gutenberg when it reaches core.
At the moment, Gutenberg is a plugin. A few people, Mike McAllister and Danny Cooper to name two, have made additional blocks that are available as plugins.
When Gutenberg goes into core, I will want to use some additional blocks (pricing tables from Danny Cooper would be an example).
If that block is in a collection of blocks available as a plugin I could add the plugin.
I could then end up with many plugins, really only wanting just one or two blocks from each plugin, and perhaps lots of repetition because the different plugins cover a lot of the same ground.
In an ideal world, I don’t want extra plugins on my site if they don’t need to be.
Is there a way I could extract the blocks I want, keep them and remove the plugin? Would reusable templates enable me to do this?
Is there a different way to do it? Will there be a repository of just blocks and only blocks that can be exported to a site without the need to add a plugin at all?
