In the journey of WordPress, the Block Editor has introduced many packages integral to its core. Over time, these packages have significantly evolved, becoming versatile tools usable within and beyond WordPress itself. Our team continually harnesses these packages to build internal tools, and client projects, and explore new possibilities. Our team’s common challenge was the repetitive task of recreating the same UI elements and maintaining numerous code snippets. Often, we found ourselves duplicating the UI we had already developed or creating something remarkably similar to what existed in the core. What began as simple code snippets eventually transformed into WPUI.…
