There have been times I wish I could modify the underlying code for a brick or a webpage. Other times I've wished all the components were linked together or better documented on their configurations, i.e. there are "blog" components that aren't on the native webpage setup. Love the vs code extension, really helps when making new pages. All in all, it's a great product/project and I definitely recommend starting now.
Hi Chris, the pre-made blocks that you see in the starter project are just examples. You can create your own custom bricks, and that is what our users do. See for example https://capbase.com: as you can see no one of the bricks you see is a pre-made brick, but they create their own. You can create your bricks as React components in the /bricks folder and import them.
React Bricks is the best CMS I've ever tried. For non-tech people is super easy to create and manage pages. At the same time the developer experience has improved, reusing our design-system react components is the key feature that made us migrate from Wordpress to React Bricks!
React Bricks is a significant upgrade in the way I collaborate with content minded artists who need a CMS that makes sense to them. Thank you for building it!
Thank you John! 😊
I you are already on our Discord server, please, contact me. I'd like to know more about your projects with React Bricks and your needs.
Reactbricks is the best CMS for React Applications. It works with Gatsby, Next and Remix. Great Layout builder. You could extend the Layout builder with your own widgets which are written in React.
Great concept, great team. Perfect for projects that need a bespoke design, custom implementation yet with the ability to edit content on-the-fly, in a user-friendly way. There is a slight learning curve, but there are lots of examples even in code to follow on from. The team reached out and assisted me to come up with a bespoke package for my needs. Would definitely recommend!
This is the best thing that has happened to me. I was planning to create a website for my SaaS product before I launch it, however, the themes/templates available were not upto my satisfaction. Changing them meant I would have to learn React, TailwindCSS which is not possible considering this short time possible. None of the other Visual IDEs could make much sense to a non-web developer like myself; except for ReactBricks. It's easy to use, you can export your project, host it anywhere you like. What's more, it has a free plan that is quite generous. This is just perfect!
React Bricks is easy to use for developers and editors. The only missing piece to make it perfect is the ability to nest complex components within components. But I know that the team is already working on this feature.
