@westnz @adamziel Some really useful info here, with demonstrations of practical application. A couple of thoughts...

• The pace was pretty fast. Not sure if that was intentional (or just Adam's style!), but might be nice to be forewarned that the tut goes pretty quick. Or slow it down a wee bit.
• That said, I believe this same video, with much of the content transcribed, is already embedded into https://wordpress.github.io/wordpress-playground/docs/start-using/#try-a-block-a-theme-or-a-plugin . Maybe a link or reference to this page at the end of the video? Unless this tutorial will be replacing that github page.
• And you probably already know that a link to the above github page can be found at https://developer.wordpress.org/playground/ which you have listed as a Related Resource above.

Overall, good stuff! I love seeing real world use cases for Playground and how they can streamline the WordPress build process.
