Is possible to have a block cheat sheet
ie say a pdf of the block name and a small pic of each block
so we can refer to it when designing pages
the demo page is good but if no heading you have to figure out which one it is
thinking out loud

I believe he is asking for a page on your site that would have a thumbnail of each block with the name of the block above (or below) it.

This is on the blocks page, each one has a screenshot and demo

If you look at your Demo page and see the stationData block and would like to include it on your site, there is no way to determine the name of the block.
If there were a page that showed an actual thumbnail of the block with it's name it would be easier.

I know, but thats exactly what is on the Blocks page - when you click any block it shows you a screenshot. Making some tiny thumbnail would not be very useful (because it would be too small) and also, sometimes the blocks change design, this would take a lot of time to do... unless someone is interested in doing it

What about an icon at the bottom of each block like the Fullscreen icon which tells the name of the block when clicked (or hoovered)?

This would not be so easy to implement and it would also have to be visible just to admin.
However it is actually quite easy, if you right click on the block, select Inspect and the div name is same as the block namespace + "Block"
