Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Rakugaki Block version 1.4.0 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Rakugaki Block is a block for gently adding hand-drawn, colored pencil-style doodles between paragraphs or at the end of blog posts.
The goal is not a full-featured drawing app. The concept is based on quick, impromptu scribbles that can be written in a few seconds.
Features
Colored-pencil brush with texture (roughness and fading)
12-color pencil palette
Three canvas sizes: S / M / L
Freely configurable background color
Pen tablet support with pressure sensitivity
Undo and Clear functions
Accessibility support (alt text for the canvas)
How to Use
Open the post or page editor
Click the block inserter ( + )
Search for “Rakugaki Block” and add it
Draw freely with your mouse, touch, or pen tablet
Adjust the size and background color in the sidebar
Pen Tablet Support
The block uses the Pointer Events API, so pen pressure is reflected in line width and opacity when drawing with a compatible tablet.
