(3P) Social Previews: Add scaffolding for the feature #16594

Closed marekhrabe closed 4 years ago

marekhrabe commented 4 years ago

This tasks is to make a scaffolding in the extensions directory for our Social Previews feature. Nothing more than a placeholder file where we will later add code and get our dependencies ready.

TODO:

[x] install @automattic/social-previews into Jetpack
[x] find a place for social previews feature and create a scaffolding
[x] mark extension as beta

Requires https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/pull/44385 to be merged and published

Since the feature will not rely on the SEO Tools module, I would recommend relying on our existing block scaffolding to have this feature be like another block, relying on JetpackPluginSidebar a bit like Shortlinks do? https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/blob/4c63a49fc0139c3296248e09ee69dedb537e024f/extensions/blocks/shortlinks/index.js#L31-L35
