Description

It would be great to see an example of how to make an image gallery as a block This will help developers see how to do this, especially for those who don't work with JS / ESNext on a daily basis

Research direction
The issue requests an image gallery block example for Gutenberg. To implement, first review existing block examples in the repository to understand the structure (e.g., how blocks are registered and rendered). Then create a new block that displays images in a gallery layout. Consider using the WordPress Block Editor API and perhaps the Media Library for image selection. The deliverable is a new example block with clear comments for newcomers.
