From the readme

HM Split Background https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f4a40412-44a1-46f3-9072-0b92152a88d0 Adds a Split Background panel to the core/group block in the WordPress block editor. It lets editors apply a hard-edge vertical gradient (two solid colours with a precise cutoff) without touching CSS or fighting the native gradient picker. The feature writes to the standard style.color.gradient attribute, so it's fully compatible with existing gradient tooling and produces no extra markup. How it works The panel appears in the Styles tab of any Group block. Enable the toggle, pick two colours from the theme palette, and drag the range control to set the split position (0–100%). Disabling the toggle clears the gradient. Installation Via Composer (recommended) Manual Download the release branch and drop it into wp-content/plugins/. Development Release This checks out the release branch, hard-resets it to main, runs a production build, force-commits the compiled build/ directory, and pushes. Composer installs point at the release branch so they always get compiled assets. Requirements: - WordPress 6.5+ - PHP 8.0+
