oEmbed Gists and Files

With FF Block Gist Embed you can embed files from GitHub Gists. It adds a block named ‘Gist Embed’ to the WordPress editor interface. For every instance of this block, you can:
<ul>
<li>Select one or more files from the same Gist URL to be embedded in your post.</li>
<li>Include the vendor stylesheet that handles the styling of Gist embeds (see the FAQ for more information).</li>
<li>Choose whether or not to embed the Gist files as raw content.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Roadmap</h3>
We would like to bring some additional features soon. Some of the things we have planned, are:
<ul>
<li>Caching the content of files</li>
<li>Manually change the order of the files from a Gist within a block</li>
<li>Automatically get the list of files after a valid Gist URL is entered in the input field</li>
</ul>

FF Block Gist Embed

This block works great for adding Gists to your posts and pages.

However, it desperately need a preview option so that you can see the results in the editor.

But, otherwise, a fantastic addition for any developer wanting to share their code.
