Remember to update folks:

If you choose to make a block stackable it becomes responsive to the container

Lots of value from Sourour, who says that she loves #Gutenberg blocks is because of the freedom to move between themes and plugins.

And of course if you use #WooCommerce, there's a block for that too wordpress.org/plugins/woo-gu…

Or Stackable Blocks wordpress.org/plugins/stacka…

If you used to be driven mad by slight layout variations on a page or post Kadence Blocks fixes that problem. wordpress.org/plugins/kadenc…

Or if you want you can use CoBlocks wordpress.org/plugins/cobloc…

Sourour shows off the effects of using animation blocks using: wordpress.org/plugins/blocks…

For tweaking layout Sourour from @kanzagifts recommends using Grids: Layout builder for WordPress wordpress.org/plugins/grids/ which lets you change a page or a post's layout right in the Dashboard.

The brains behind @KanzaGifts on playing with #Gutenberg at #WPJoburg.

From @wordcampjoburg A lightening talk about how Anke Stow used WordPress to launch her side hustle.
