Example new Block creation tutorial

[djaus2]

GraphQL etc coding is not my area of expertise. Would it be possible to have a short tutorial on how to add a couple of new simple blocks. HelloWorld and slightly above in complexity?

I do not want enter into GraphQL intricancies. Too complicated for a HTTP call from Web.

What do you want to create?

Thanks for the reply. It was a general query. I'll look into that Blockly tute.

In the meantime I have found a partial way around that. I create a controller called Misc in which I can put some C# coding in a Get method. I then can call it from Blockly with parameters, get the processed result and use that. I have used it to create a detailed menu string from a CSV string.

Will post on my blog site, but the build on Azure is failing.

Here is my blog post on creating a Custom block via call to the Controller:
