Standard Block-Based Pages

[ChristopherBiscardi]

Standard Pages

We should ship a set of standard pages

• /uses
  • What editor theme is that? what font? what chair do you sit in? what guitar/camera/DAW? what software for screencasts?
  • example: https://wesbos.com/uses/
• /now
  • What are you doing now?
  • https://nownownow.com/about
• /canon
  • What influenced you to become who your are?
  • example: https://www.brendanschlagel.com/canon/
• something else?

Blocks

These pages should be rendered using a concept of Blocks so that content can be added/removed/re-ordered without having to rebuild the entire page.

for example, a Spotify block could be added as a plugin to the garden theme on the /now page, then configured to show the last 10 songs listened to or the last playlist.

The generic Block should be shadowable, as well as the SpotifyBlock, etc.

@ChristopherBiscardi This sounds amazing!

Good ideas. Maybe /contact. May or may not have typical form, maybe just social media links, etc. But could also be added to the footer....

I was playing some with this concept in gatsby-theme-bulma component and relying on Gatsby node to pick up templates based on which packages were installed. Might give you some direction to riff on.
