## Sharraxaad

Introduces a simple method for defining block areas to use the block editor outside
of the post content.

This is an experimental plugin that explores basic usage of Gutenberg blocks outside
of the content bubble, on a sitewide level.

In the long term it will likely eliminate itself once WordPress core and Gutenberg
will have completed the next phase of advancing to the sitewide level. The plugin
exists as a baseline to have an easy way for experimenting with similar functionality
already today.

#### Usage

After activating the plugin, you can create and edit block areas under _Appearance
> Block Areas_. There should be two block areas already, `header` and `footer`.

Block areas are identified by their unique slug. Since `header` and `footer` are
expected to exist, make sure not to delete them.

In order to print a specific block area, for example in your theme, use `block_areas()-
>render( $slug )` (e.g. `block_areas()->render( 'header' )`).

You can also explicitly add theme support, specifying which block area slugs your
theme relies on (e.g. `add_theme_support( 'block-areas', 'header', 'footer' )`).

I totally agree with @markhowellsmead – it’s a real pleasure to use Your solution.
Hope we’ll be able to work with it as core WordPress functionality soon.

Great idea and reliable plugin, which we use to allow our clients to edit areas 
using Gutenberg outside of the main content area.
