I love that I can download Gutenberg- compatible plugins to test on GutenBridget.com. The buttons look great and the work very well. Thank you. The weird part for me is not seeing the preview or a save option when I add the block. I just updated the post and boom, it worked. The other thing that is a tiny bit of a bummer, though I suspect it’s because I don’t have a block template yet, is that I have to add it to each post manually. Whereas with Mashshare, I just tell it to be on all posts. I cannot wait to see how you iterate this plugin. I’m so excited about this.
