add-block

What problem does it solve?

Create a new Gutenberg block following WordPress best practices to streamline block development and ensure consistency across projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automates scaffolding of a block directory structure including block.json, src/blocks/[block-name], index.js, edit.js, save.js, style.scss, editor.scss, frontend.js, and optional render.php for dynamic rendering
• Enforces WordPress coding standards and common patterns such as useBlockProps and editor controls scaffolding
• Provides prompts to gather essential block metadata (name, category, frontend needs, dynamic rendering) and outputs a ready-to-use boilerplate for quick iteration

Quick Start

Follow prompts to specify the block name and category, then run the scaffold to generate the complete block boilerplate.
