This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Shiny Gutenberg block which auto types a given sentence(s). Makes for great headers! But can also be added to normal paragraph text (not implemented).

Uses Typed.js library.

Usecases

  • Page and Post Headers
  • Standard paragraph text
  • Nested inside other blocks

Possible Future Improvements

  • Add more google fonts
  • Let users choose from multiple backgrounds by either creating custom ones or downloading from Subtle Patterns (requires attribution)
  • Let users control the different Typed.js options

Bugs

  • Returning to editor after save shows invalid block, but block will still render on the frontend.
Gutenberg skills too poor currently to go further with this. Feel free to fork and extend, looking at you Hardeep 👀.
