We just gave the SmartBlocks Store a mini redesign!
We've also added a notion of "scores" so that workflows are now sorted by the highest scores. Currently, scores only includes number of downloads but will soon include more factors.
Check out which Workflows your peer use! pic.twitter.com/2m1S8uSGqB
