Very Simple as in its title

Simple Alert Boxes are a nice elegant way to achieve quick alert styles within the block editor. The code is well-done and lightweight and doesn't include too many fancy options. In the future, I hope the author will consider more custom styling, but I suppose in order to keep the alert boxes simple, decisions over options is the right path here. I have forked this plugin into something more advanced, so I am very intimate with the code in this plugin. Andrew hits it out of the park as usual. Cheers, Ronald Huereca
