The block library
Blocks are the building units of an Experience. This is the full reference, grouped the way the block picker groups them, with a worked example for each family.

NearField ships 51 content blocks in seven groups. What a block is, how the picker is organised, what the Action and Memory markers mean, and how to pick the right one.
