       Fellow Fediverse #WordPress users, do any of you know if there is a way to add a HTML details element using blocks?I know I can use a custom HTML block and mark it up manually, but I’d rather just add a block.

       @kev Would probably have to be a plugin that adds such a block... I think.

       @ru yeah, I’m thinking the same. For the amount of times I’ll use them, I’m probably just best writing out the HTML.Suppose i could have a blank one as a reusable block…

       @kev I love the block editor but like you I wish it supported all of the HTML spec, not just parts that are more "common."Plugins are so overloaded...

       @kev not without a plugin I think. It should be relatively easy to make one.Getting into block development comes with a bit of a learning curve, but there is a nice little quick start package provided in npm that does most of the work for you 🤔If I ever do make a plugin like that I’ll make sure to ping you first :)

       @ru @kev I used to write plug-ins and shortcodes but never even investigated if it's possible to write a custom editor block. Now I'm curious, even if I'm not using WordPress at the moment.

       @m2m @ru @kev If somehow a reusable Custom HTML block doesn’t cut it and “modern” JavaScript isn’t quite your thing, Genesis Custom Blocks (or a similar plugin) might be of help?

       @ru @kev while reading an how-to for a custom gutenberg block I've found this: https://github.com/ahmadawais/create-guten-blockI didn't know it's almost all React and JS. I think I'll stick to a SSG.

       @kev In CoBlocks (https://wordpress.org/plugins/coblocks/) we have an "accordion" block that does what you need but it's not available as a singular block.We are working on trimming down the blocks (converting some into core blocks) but the accordion doesn't have a core alternative right now. So it'll be sticking around for a bit.
