Using just a little basic HTML, CSS, and a simple helper plugin \u2013 Block Lab, we\u2019ll create our very own Hero Block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This talk will be hugely helpful for freelancers and agencies who are keen to dive in to Block development (the easy way). There\u2019s a little code involved, but it\u2019s very beginner friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-wordcamp-brisbane-2019\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/2019.brisbane.wordcamp.org\/speaker\/luke-carbis\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So by now you\u2019ve had a chance to check out the new WordPress editor.
