Elementor Page Builder Alternative in Gutenberg

WordPress new editor is fantastic and already millions of people using it every day for publishing, designing websites, create readable content for users, customers and for the internet.

The New WordPress Editor has basic blocks which are very useful to create great contents, but for complex layout building for landing pages and inner pages, it fails. I was searching for a good Gutenberg addon which will be very lightweight and will have enhanced blocks to build complex layouts and elements for WordPress. Bottom line, If we have an addon to replicate Elementor Page builder elements, then it would be fantastic.

The good news is, We finally get a free Gutenberg addon which almost has all the blocks that Elementor Page builder offers. It’s “Enhanced Blocks” for Gutenberg editor. Let’s explore the power of Enhanced Blocks.
