Genesis Blocks Pro gives Gutenberg users a library of more than 15 blocks, along with over 50 full-page layouts and 130+ sections. Use these ready-made elements to shape pages, then customize the layout and content for your site. Sections include options such as hero areas, testimonials, calls to action, and pricing tables.
The plugin also lets you save custom sections and layouts for reuse, helping teams keep page designs consistent across projects.
