Yeah, it seems like SCSS is relevant, but otherwise, it seems like all sample theme components use Components and have been refactored to an entirely different codebase than what is taught here. I went thru all the components they link to in the Plugin API section and every single one has been refactored in a manner that is totally different than what is taught here in the guide. Widgets are not used anymore at all. It’s all Components. Is there a guide on how to actually properly use the new Components as Widgets are going away?
