Block Theme Development and Block Bindings API WordPress 6.5

Coming in WordPress 6.5, is a groundbreaking feature: the Block Bindings API and it's all about Binding and Objectifying.But what does that really mean? To me, it signifies a significant leap forward in bridging the gap between classic themes development and the dynamic capabilities of Block Theme development.
Special thanks to Jamie for advice and cameo shout out! Your support is greatly appreciated.

    Hopefully next step in G is a UI that implements the API so we don't have to edit the post content markup directly like that?

    Don't we need ACF anymore if it's once released?

    I wouldn’t deactivate ACF at all, core doesn’t have a great UI or UX for this just yet and I’m sure ACF will exploit this new functionality over their next updates

    It's on the list, but here are a few cheap wins you can implement right away: • Review your hosting provider to ensure you're getting the best performance for your budget. • Optimize your images to reduce their file size and improve page load times. • Monitor and deactivate unused plugins to reduce unnecessary load on your site. • Assess which plugins are vital for your site's functionality and monitor the CSS and JS being loaded. • Take advantage of the new 'strategy' parameter in WordPress 6.3's wp_enqueue_script() function. Set it to 'defer' or 'async' for scripts to improve load times and Core Web Vitals (CWV) scores. • Oh... and avoid throwing mainstream caching plugins to try and solve the issue, its better to resolve what this issue is at source before adding a caching plugin, you'll get much better results that way. Implementing these strategies can help improve your site's performance while you work on other optimizations. Hope this helps in the meantime!

    What about constraining what post metadata can be entered?

    Would this work with input fields made by ACF, considering it also saves into post meta?

    For a very basic single key yes, if you are using complex repeating fields you will need to know the exact key given by ACF, in this first release there aren't any provisions for complex array's or looping data in a Block Theme tempate as they are simply .html files, that said I'm sure there will be some improvements in future releases of WordPress - hope this helps :)
