This form has an “HTML field”, which is just a <textarea> but “improved”
with the use of Automattic’s isolated block editor[0], a repackaged
Gutenberg’s editor playground as full-featured multi-instance editor
that does not require WordPress.
I do not want to use Node to build this huge, over-engineered piece of …
software. Therefore, i downloaded the released “browser” package, and
added the required React bundle, like i do with HTMx. This will hold
until i need a new custom block type; let’s hope i will not need it.

We made the decision that this application will also serve the public
pages to guests and customers, to avoid the overhead of having to
synchronize all data between this application and a bespoke WordPress
plugin.
That means that i no longer can have a /company/slug in the URL to know
which company the request is for, not only because it looks ugly but
because guest users do not have a “main company”—or any company
whatsoever.
Since the public-facing web is going to be served through a valid DNS
domain, and all companies are going to have a different domain, i
realized this is enough: i only had to add a relation of company and
their hosts. The same company can have many hosts for staging servers
or to separate the administration and public parts, for instance.
With change, the company is already known from the first handler, and
can pass it down to all the others, not only the handlers under
/company/slug/whatever. And i no longer need the companyURL function,
as there is no more explicit company in the URL.
Even though template technically does not need the template, as it only
contains the ID —the rest of the data is in a relation inaccessible to
guests for now—, but i left the parameter just in case later on i need
the decimal digits or currency symbol for whatever reason.
