Research direction

Start with the Devvit Blocks button implementation and trace how the appearance="caution" example from the linked button documentation is compiled to CSS classes. Compare the generated button-secondary class with the existing button-caution CSS. Done means caution buttons render yellow while secondary buttons retain their dark grey appearance.

Description

blocks
Issue

Using the Block component shows up the same as i.e. a dark grey color rather than yellow

Example Devvit Code

<button appearance="caution" onPress={() => someAction('here') }>

however, as per the documentation here: Devvit docs the style should be yellow

Expected Resolution

This appears to happen since the css is compiled to class button-secondary rather than button-caution. Please correct the compilation, since the caution class does appear to be present in the css, maybe the build process incorrectly compiles to secondary instead.

Hoping for a quick resolution. Thanks!
