Hallway Hangout: Let’s explore the power of block variations

Join us for a casual conversation about block variations and how you can use them to enhance the editing experience in WordPress. An often overlooked feature, variations are a great way to extend existing blocks and can be as simple or complex as you like. Many WordPress Core blocks you use daily are variations!

To kick off the discussion, we will provide a brief overview of what variations are and how they work. Ryan Welcher will then share how he built the Advanced Query Loop plugin and why he opted for a variation of the Query block instead of building a custom block from scratch. And if you have built any variations or are using them in interesting ways, we encourage you to share them with the group.

While block variations tend to be a more developer-focused topic, this Hallway Hangout will be accessible to everyone.
