So I got access to #GithubBlocks and it's quite underwhelming. There's not even a list view for folder contents. That should be a given. And it doesn't look like it's supposed to be a part of GitHub.com at all, so the main appeal is kinda moot.
@Techmeme @Amir 💔 sounds a lot like what we're building with #GitHubBlocks
We're holding our first office hours for #GitHubBlocks right now! Come on down to the discord and talk with the folks from next, build a block, ask us questions! https://discord.gg/XGEWRrqF
Getting ready to flag people into #GitHubBlocks today! Sorry it's taking so long, but we're excited to get our first creators in to kick the tires and tell us how they feel about the UX
Also, join us on https://discord.gg/githubnext! It's a nice community of folks thinking about the future of software.
GitHub announced GitHub Blocks, a way to integrate interactive blocks in all parts of a repository. For example, for making documentation dynamic (with search and interactive code examples) or to provide custom visualizations.
Looks quite powerful at the first glance!

#GithubBlocks looks interesting. A way to embed custom UI inside repository view open a lot of fun opportunities.
