Visual editing

Edit the page itself, and trust what you publish.

A visual builder that edits real elements, with phone and tablet views, a step-by-step history and a private way to hold the site back while you work.

Most editors make you choose between a clean page and an easy editor.

Page builders add layers of markup you pay for on every visit, and plain editors make you guess how a page will look. Editing should show you the result and still leave clean pages.

What you get

  • See it as visitors will

    Edit on the page and switch between Desktop, Tablet and Phone widths without leaving the editor.

  • Undo in plain words

    History lists each step, such as Add Heading or Move Button, and you can go back to any of them.

Under the hood

  • Real elements

    The builder stores a page as a tree of elements and components, not as pasted markup.

  • No page script in previews

    The editor preview runs no theme, plugin or island script.

  • Themes control the look

    Pick or build a theme, and edit layout parts such as the header and footer in the same builder.

Questions people ask

Can I change the design without code?

Yes. Layout, spacing, fill, typography, corners and effects are controls in the Style tab.

Where do I get a theme?

Pick one from the Themes directory, or build your own.
