Description
Picture this: You write a brand new custom Gutenberg block. Sometime later, you realize that you need to change your block's markup to either fix a bug or add a new feature. Suddenly, the editor crashes your block. Validation error! You can fix this with a deprecation object. Or… could there be a better way?
Enter the dynamic block. In this workshop, you will learn about the difference between dynamic and static blocks, how block validation works, and how to write a dynamic block. You will never have to write a deprecation again!
This talk is rather technical, but you only need to know some basic HTML, JavaScript, and PHP. This is easier than it sounds. I promise!
