A Generic Block is the most basic and versitile block. It allows for content to be positioned anywhere on your page (any drop block area) and can be re-used on as many pages as you wish. Blocks can be shared with other sites as well.

The Eventbrite Listing Block is used to list events that have been created in EventBrite which is a third-party platform for creating and managing events. The block is very easy to set up allowing editors to set the number of events to display, as well as link to a page listing all events. 

This block allows you to create a lot of content and only expose it when the accordion item is clicked. The first one will open on page load. Each accordion, when opened, will close the others. This allows you to create a lot of content in less space vertically. It also provides interactivity on the page.
