Using the Block Collection and Block Party

To find AEM Edge Delivery block implementations, search the Block Collection and Block Party to surface vetted blocks, live examples, and GitHub links. You receive structured metadata including variant HTML structures to guide your implementation.

Block Collection provides Adobe-curated AEM blocks prioritizing best practices, while Block Party offers community-driven patterns, plugins, and tools. Comparing both surfaces diverse reference implementations and tooling options for your specific integration scenario.

Yes, you can compare AEM block HTML structures by running the search workflow to discover relevant blocks. The workflow returns structured metadata and variant HTML structures from both Block Collection and Block Party to inform your component design.

Yes, jsdom is required as a dependency to run the scripts that search and evaluate AEM block patterns. It enables the environment to parse and surface the structured metadata and HTML structures from the reference repositories.

Use Block Party when you need community-driven plugins, tools, or specialized patterns beyond Adobe's curated best practices. Use the Block Collection when prioritizing vetted, performance-optimized reference implementations for standard AEM Edge Delivery scenarios.

Using a search script for AEM block discovery aggregates and structures metadata across multiple sources, providing live examples, documentation links, and variant HTML comparisons quickly. This surfaces vetted implementations faster than manually browsing separate repositories.
