Description
I noticed that in some blocks we replace the saved version of the blocks with a server side render (e.g. Calendly and OpenTable) whereas in others we append the server side render to the saved version and then hide the saved version (e.g. Eventbrite).
Is there a reason for taking one approach vs the other?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Compare the Calendly, OpenTable, and Eventbrite block implementations to trace how each handles saved content and server-side rendering. Determine whether the different approaches are intentional, then record the rationale and expected behavior for each block so the inconsistency is explained or a follow-up change can be scoped.
