About Bricks

Bricks is a visual site builder delivered as a WordPress theme. It lets you design whole sites, including templates, headers, footers and dynamic content from custom fields, in a fast front-end editor that produces leaner markup than most WordPress page builders. Developers like its class-based styling, query loops, conditions and code access, which make it feel closer to Webflow than to typical drag-and-drop builders. It needs self-hosted WordPress, and it has a steeper learning curve than Elementor for non-technical users, with a smaller third-party add-on market. There is no free version: licences are sold per year by number of sites, plus a one-time lifetime licence for unlimited sites, all with a generous refund window. It suits developers and agencies who want visual building without sacrificing performance.

Best for: WordPress developers and agencies who care about clean markup and speed.
