WordPress Sheffield October 2019 - Tom Nowell: Using blocks outside the editor

This month our speaker is Nom Nowell. Tom is a VIP launch engineer at WordPress.com VIP for Automattic.

He reviews and deploys millions of lines of code each year for large sites at scale. Tom is also a community moderator at WordPress Stack Exchange, lead developer for VVV, and a conference speaker.

"Using blocks outside the editor"
Blocks aren’t just for editing posts and pages. Tom will build a block, then show you how to put it in other places, such as a settings page or even on the front-end. Why should posts get all the attention?
