Why Panorama Block?
Panorama Block is a lightweight 360-degree panorama viewer Gutenberg block that lets you display panoramic images and videos on your website within a few clicks. It supports a variety of panoramic files such as .png, .jpeg, .mp4, and more, with spherical texture projections powered by WebGL/Three.js.
The plugin is very easy to use – anyone can configure the viewer without any technical knowledge. Turn on auto-rotation to keep visitors engaged, set the rotation speed right inside the editor, and decide whether viewers can pan, zoom, and drag the scene themselves.
