Block themes have revolutionized WordPress, introducing a new era of web design. With full site editing (FSE), every aspect of a website’s design is easily accessible. No coding is required—simply use the intuitive point-and-click interface to create a fully customized design.
Before diving in too deep, it’s important to note that block themes differ fundamentally from traditional WordPress themes. Designed specifically for full site editing (FSE) and the Gutenberg block editor, they belong to a distinct category of themes built for a more flexible, block-based design experience.
With those details covered, let’s dive into exploring block themes! While this category is rapidly growing, it will take time for their numbers to catch up to the vast selection of classic themes available on the market.
That said, there are already plenty of great options available. Plus, the ease of customization makes block themes incredibly flexible. If a specific design element doesn’t suit your needs, you can easily tweak it or start fresh to create a look that works for you.
