//Overview

Built from community feedback

Over the last year, we've been listening to the Etch community — paying attention to the features that aren't on the roadmap yet, or are low on the priority list.

This plugin lets you start using the most requested enhancements now.

We've packed in as many valuable improvements as possible while keeping everything stable and performant. As Etch evolves and adds more APIs, so will the Enhancer.

Show/hide template for posts in the Etch editor

See component names and descriptions in Gutenberg
