The historic Hello Dolly plugin, but in block form.

Debuted at WordCamp US 2022, the Hello Dolly Block demonstrates how quickly a dynamic block can be created using modern techniques, core components, and block supports. This plugin was built using the Create Block package and should be considered experimental.
