Description

Is that something planned for the future?

ACF already brings custom fields to blocks, but would it be possible to bring the Editor to it’s own custom field, so we can make use of Gutenberg in a front-end form for example.

I really hope so! How hard is it to implement Elliot? The groundwork seems to be done: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/13088

Best,
Dennis
