We had a bit of a mix up with the time due to timezones and DST but were able to share two designs: @shaunandrews shared Pattern Directory design progress and @critterverse shared reusable blocks. @estelaris shared ways designers can be more involved.

Attendance: This month we had a total of 10 contributors attending the meeting. @estelaris, @critterverse, @paaljoachim, @shaunandrews, @kellychoffman, @melchoyce, @kjellr, @beafialho, @ibdz, @mukesh27 are among the ones who attended the March 2021 Show and Tell.

Reusable blocks

  • @critterverse shared her ongoing work with Reusable blocks. To continue the discussion, check out the issue on Github: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/30357

Being more active

@estelaris started the discussion on how designers be more active. A few take-aways:

  • Bring work out in the open so more people are aware of what is going on and we can engage in discussions.
  • Rely more on async communication in Slack, especially as not everyone can make all the meetings.
  • Consider posting work to the Make Design blog, as @shaunandrews recently did with Patterns.

We look forward to having you with the Design Team. The next Show and Tell is set to take place on the Wednesday, April 28, 2021, 18:00 UTC.
