Welcome to the Creat Blocks CLI/Gutenberg wiki!

Notes from April 11th, 2020

Our Project: Replace the Gutenberg examples with templates on npm that would be used by the create-block CLI tool. We will work on our own repository, making PRs to a feature branch.https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/tree/master/packages/create-block
