Using one instance of wp-scripts to work with all blocks about block-development-examples HOT 3 OPEN

Thank you for pointing that out, @ryanwelcher

Getting Started is a good place, seeing a lot of potential in the repo!

This wp-block-development-examples repo is a monorepo multipackage because it contains several packages (plugins)

Going to submit a PR to indicate that wp-scripts is "bundled" when scaffolding new plugins/blocks with the instructions provided to use the repo

from block-development-examples.

This repo uses pnpm to build all of the blocks, have a look at the instructions in the Development section in the Wiki for set up instructions.

Hi @flexseth,

First of all, thanks a lot for your issues and PRs on this repo 🙏

In order to take a look at blocks in this repo, there are a couple of steps needed:

I want to provide a broader perspective of what can be done with the examples of this repo.
We value any feedback you can provide on the guidelines provided in this repository. Your input is highly appreciated.

Clone the repo

You can actually check the examples without cloning the repo. WIth the links provided for each example you can check the example online (with WP playground) or download the .zip and uncompress it at the plugins folder of your own WP installation.

Move all files from the repo's /plugins folder to wp-content/plugins for your local installation

You can just move those examples you're interested in

Build the NPM packages for each block (takes running/installing multiple times)

Again, you can just build the NPM packages for the blocks you're interested in.

As you already mention, the Getting Started guide is a great place to start working with the examples of this repo. Some of the things mentioned in this page about how to work locally with these examples are:

• Run npm run env:start from the root folder to use wp-env to get a local development environment with ALL the examples (each example can be located by their ID)
• Run pnpm -- wp-env start from any plugin folder to use wp-env to get a local development environment with that example
• Run npx @wp-now/wp-now start from any plugin folder to use wp-now to quickly launch a WordPress installation with that specific plugin installed.

The Local Development Guide is another good resource to learn more about how to work locally with the examples of this repo
