You can now recommend specific theme blocks in the block picker, making them easier to find.

To do this, include the `@theme` block type along with your recommended blocks in the `blocks` array of the schema. All other blocks remain accessible by selecting **Show all**. [Learn more](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/sections/section-schema#recommended-blocks).
