volto-featured-block

Volto add-on to create pages with arbitrary content based on a simple schema (title + image + text), that can be extended using schemaEnhancers and that support variations. The content of the block is not based in some other content of the site (for instance in core Volto's Teaser block content comes initially from a given content of the site).

This block is intended to build front pages or landing pages where usually a lot of simple content need to be added and that content is not coming from existing content.

It provides extension mechanisms using schemaExtenders and variations to add new templates or fields to it.
