What is GrapesJS?

GrapesJS is an open-source, web-based editor that enables users to build HTML templates, emails, landing pages, and full websites with a visual, drag-and-drop interface. Its mission is to democratize web design and development by bringing powerful tools to both beginners and professionals, eliminating the barriers of manual coding while offering full flexibility for customization. The platform outputs clean, standards-based HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, ensuring compatibility and accessibility. Users benefit from an extensive plugin ecosystem, responsive design tools, and the ability to create custom components. GrapesJS serves businesses, freelancers, marketers, and developers who need rapid prototyping or production-ready web assets. Its open-source nature ensures transparency, extensibility, and community-driven improvement.

How to use GrapesJS?

To use GrapesJS, simply access the editor through the website or integrate it into your application using the framework. Begin by dragging blocks—such as text, images, or buttons—onto your canvas. Style, arrange, and nest elements visually using the panel tools. The editor provides options for customizing design properties, managing assets, and previewing responsive layouts. Once your template or website is ready, export the clean HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for deployment, or extend functionality with plugins for more advanced use cases.
