I just started learning p5.js a couple of days ago and it was great to be able to instantly add sketches to posts on my existing wordpress site. Wish the sound library was included however as most of my work involves sound. Hopefully in the future!

Processing is a popular language for digital expression -- and I'm delighted to get to easily embed Processing code into a Gutenberg block. Wow!
