Description
Add incredible versatility to your editor without bloating it with tons of one-dimensional Gutenberg blocks. With GenerateBlocks, you can learn a handful of blocks deeply and use them to build anything.
GenerateBlocks works hand-in-hand with GeneratePress, but is built to work with any theme.
Looking for more features? Check out GenerateBlocks Pro.
Container
Organize your content into rows and sections. The Container block is the foundation of your content, allowing you to design unique sections for your content.
Grid
Create advanced layouts with flexible grids. The Grid block gives you the ability to create any kind of layout you can imagine.
Headline
Craft text-rich content with advanced typography. Everything from headings to paragraphs – take full control of your text.
Button
Drive conversions with beautiful buttons.
Query Loop
Build a list of posts from any post type using advanced query parameters.
Image
Add static or dynamic images to your content to make a visual statement.
Performance
We take performance seriously. Minimal CSS is generated only for the blocks you need, and our HTML structure is as simple as possible while allowing for maximum flexibility.
Coding standards
Built to the highest coding standards for security, stability and future compatibility.
Fully responsive
Every block comes with tablet and mobile controls, giving you total control of your responsive design.
