Description
Hi there,
With the latest update of ACF (6.0) ACF Blocks can now be registered the recommended WP way of doing things using block.json. Is it possible to register ACF block.json and use Local JSON fields within a @wordpress/create-block plugin?
By using Local JSON, I'm taking a guess that ACF would need to be included in the plugin?
Reason being, @wordpress/create-block wpscripts comes with really helpful Webpack build tooling. It is also now possible to register multiple blocks within a @wordpress/create-block plugin, which would negate the need to setup a package.json and webpack.config etc..for each registered ACF block.
I'll be interested to know whether this is possible or maybe there is another (better) way of achieving this?

Review the ACF 6.0 block.json registration path, the @wordpress/create-block plugin workflow, and Local JSON fields. Establish whether these pieces can be used together and define the supported integration path; done means the compatibility question has a documented, reproducible answer.
