Finally, an accessibility plugin for downloadable files
It's very useful that it's easy to use and compatible with Gutenberg. I searched everywhere and was starting to despair. So thank you to @threadi for this great work.I've suggested translations for the French version. I m waiting for their validation. I really need a French version for next month :)

Great Gutenberg Plugin, Great Support
Perfect plugin for adding a download link list. I am already using it on a couple of websites. Also, the developer goes above and beyond. Give it a try!

Great plugin for Gutenberg and files
I was looking for a plugin that would allow me to show the size of the files I wanted to share with the community as well as the extension and icons to show for each individual file. With this plugin I found everything. Good integration with Gutenberg. This plugin replaces Gutenberg's insufficient native "file block" and extends its capabilities. Please, increase the possibility to select file's icons

Easy to use document listing block
This Gutenberg block plugin makes it very easy to add a list of downloads anywhere on the page. You can select the files from the media manager and choose whether to show the description, size, etc. And they can be bullets or numbered. My page builder often conflicts with 3rd party blocks, but this one worked perfectly. It looks very elegant, and it will be easy for my clients to use. Originally I had a conflict, but support fixed it immediately - very responsive development team!

Easy to use
This plugin is even better than the built-in single download link block since it takes its link text from the media title instead of the media filename. Thank you, Thomas!
