Hey! Congrats on this plugin. I have tested a few gutenberg-based slider plugins and yours is looking like the best so far!

Very simple and useful solution. Being able to use normal blocks within a slide makes it really versatile. Great support for individual help and quick response to bug reports.

Singular and unmatched
