discussion: Custom block script/example repository #1215

Copying comment from https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/issues/715#issue-627886430:

Note that there are a lot of simple blocks here that could be handled by the custom block, especially those that just call external programs, so I don't see the advantage of adding those into the Rust codebase since there's no performance gains etc to be made. However we could look into the idea of having contributed configs for the custom block either in the repo or wiki or somewhere.

Would like to hear everyone's opinion on the best way forward.

I think a simple folder of configs in this repo is the best way to go. With a readme.md as an index + maybe a style guide. The wiki has some contribution issues after all...

Want to be the first to create it? :laughing:
