  • RDB take Block Composability to the next level!

    Remote Data Blocks takes composability in Gutenberg to the next level! With RDB, you can easily drag and drop to create interactive, media-rich web experiences using data from sources outside the WP database, such as Google Sheets, Airtable, and more! For large sites and those with complex data driven products this is a life saver. The interface for working with large datasets is so well done and makes it easy for designers and editors alike to build out content they simply wouldn't have been able to do before. And for developers, RDB is easy to work with and extend!
