1. Registering Blocks
I read Gutenberg coding last night and found interesting idea on how they allow addons.
I realize it is similar to our Visual, which also allow addons.
By default, I believe WordPress generates window.wp variable for each post type edit page.
We can see it in the console as screenshot below:
Gutenberg adds additional function/object into window.wp such as blocks, components, etc.
We can see it is added by every file build/index.js found in Gutenberg directory.
They use webpack.config.js to output it.
For example, addon can register their block by using window.wp.blocks.registerBlockType().
