Features

Welcome to the Features documentation. In this chapter, you will learn about various features supported by the WordPress block theming system.

This chapter does not have a singular focus. Instead, it offers information on several different topics that will help you work with more advanced features, stepping beyond the basics that you learned in Global Settings and Styles and Templates.
