oik-block – Gut feel revisited

oik-block – Gut feel revisited

Back in April I was developing a prototype plugin called oik-block that contained a number of prototype Gutenberg blocks plus a whole load of code that helped me to form opinions regarding Gutenberg’s compatibility with my sites and to estimate the code of migrating to Gutenberg and/or WordPress 5.0. I’ve recently forked oik-block to create a new plugin called oik-blocks. Here’s an update.

There are now two oik plugins developed for Gutenberg.

Plugin Description
oik-block Gut feel – helps you form Gutenberg compatibility opinions
oik-blocks WordPress 5.0 blocks for oik shortcodes
oik-block – Gut feel – helps you form Gutenberg compatibility opinions.

oik-block no longer contains any blocks. Since v0.1.0-alpha-20181128 it only contains the logic that helps you form Gutenberg compatibility opinions. It’s available from bobbingwide/oik-block.

oik-blocks - WordPress blocks for oik-shortcodes

oik-blocks is the plugin that contains the prototype Gutenberg blocks. Since v0.1.0-alpha-20181128 it only contains blocks. There are 11 of them.

They’re still mostly prototype code but I’m happy enough with them to be using two of them in this post; CSV and Countdown.

11 prototype blocks implemented using oik shortcode functionality

Estimates revisited?

So where am I in my evaluation of Gutenberg’s compatibility with my content? tl;dr No further forward. See my April post.

So where’s WordPress 5.0? tl;dr TBD.

5.0 RC1 was released but there are no dates for any further Release Candidates. Let’s leave them to it eh?  

Fuck me this is getting slower and slower!
