Where to find block repositories?
I've seen in the tutorial(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAcJ5G2GhiA) some blocks like "paragraph & image" and "past project spotlight", besides in the official demo(https://demo.twill.io/work/works/2335/edit) like "fixed image grid" and "flexible image grid".
Are those blocks coded somewhere? Moreover, I would like to know where I can find more community blocks.

Hi @bmasquio there are no library of blocks because the idea of Twill is to let you create your own depending on your frontend needs, instead of the opposite. Each block is a composition of fields from all available form fields in Twill.
here are some other examples of blocks in different Twill instances
are you looking for a library of block forms, or is it the frontend rendering of those blocks that you're also looking for?
I think the library of block forms could be a cool idea to share with the community. the latter, frontend blocks, is not so much in Twill's scope, as we want users to have full control over their frontend templates
I was looking for a library of block forms. One that I could find for instance "paragraph & image" or others alike.
the thing is block forms are really simple so it feels a bit unecessary. a paragraph + image block is a WYSIWYG field + a medias field. but this is good feedback, i think we could put something together without much effort if the community finds it useful
Thank you. Certainly this specific block is no big deal in coding, though I think it would help to have this little piece. But what would help me most is to get some block ideas that I haven't thought of.
To illustrate my particular scenario, I'm working on a news module, like the one in the tutorial video, and the same which I think a lot of people would be working on. Clearly, the main "field" is the content of the news, and we need more than just a WISIWYG to store it. I would like to find some blocks already coded and designed by the community.
It's just something that I think could be shared someway. Not sure how. Thank you for considering it.
