How do you implement a custom Magento block in an extension?

Answer: To implement a custom Magento block in an extension, follow these steps:

1. Create the block class: In your extension’s directory, create a PHP class that extends `MagentoFrameworkViewElementTemplate` or another appropriate base block class.

2. Define the block in layout XML: In your module’s `view/frontend/layout` directory, create or modify a layout XML file to define where your block will appear using something like:
“`xml

“`

3. Create the template file: In your module’s `view/frontend/templates` directory, create a `.phtml` file that contains the block’s HTML and PHP logic.

4. Register your module: Ensure your module is registered and enabled in Magento by having a `registration.php` file.

5. Flush cache: Clear Magento’s cache to see your changes.

After these steps, your custom block will be rendered wherever you defined it in the layout XML.
