I had the pleasure of chatting with Michelle Frechette on WPCoffeeTalk today. We talked about WordPress, my new site, and the fields API

I started working on a very rough PoC earlier this week, and it helped me form an opinion on how I think the fields API could work. I think there’s some pretty good ideas here that would allow us to implement the fields API without disrupting WordPress backcompat.

I started working on an initial Proof of concept for the WordPress Fields API last night before COVID really started to set in. I’ve kind of already solved this problem in the past with Underpin, so I’m drawing inspiration from that effort. First draft is functional, supports JSON, and is set up to support different control types.

This PR introduces a new document to the fields API that illustrates how to build a sidebar in the post settings section sidebar in the block editor. The goal of this PR is to help add visibility on one of the many ways in which a field is used inside WordPress.
