This is a template repository as a basic starting point for developing custom blocks for Lowdefy. For a detailed description of how to build custom blocks, visit the Custom Blocks sections in the docs.
This repository contains basic example of blocks for the five different block categories; display
, input

, context
and list
. You can read more about how blocks are used in Lowdefy in the Blocks section of the docs.
A Lowdefy block has two files, the block meta data and the block React component.
