From Tolerating Rise to Being Obsessed With It — A Code Block Story
YES to all of this! The "sent out of the experience" struggle was so real — nothing breaks immersion quite like a learner clicking a button and suddenly they're in a browser tab wondering how they got there. 😅
Code Blocks genuinely changed the game for that exact reason. External resources, media, interactions — all of it lives inside the experience now. No escape hatches. 😁
And you nailed it with the confluence event framing. Vibe coding + Code Blocks + AI tools hitting at the same time feels like the moment everything clicked into place for what's actually possible in Rise. We went from "I guess I'll add a button link" to "I'm building custom JavaScript interactions with a full brand system" practically overnight.
The open source editable assets idea is 🔥 — that's such a generous move for your team. Reusable components that don't require someone to start from scratch every time is exactly what teams need!
Well, I just couldn't help myself, could I 😁
I'll leave this here...have a fab weekend when it starts...wanted to do more but Gemini has now introduced 5-hour generation windows too
The Zip is a working production file, the index, delete .txt extension to see what I've tinkered with
