My digital marketing friend asked me how useful bricksbuilder would be for client sites done in bricksbuilder as opposed to thrive builder.
Normal query he gets a week / fortnight is like this :
another inquiry for a friend who wants to make a simple website for his bag manufacturing business wants a ball park estimate for a display website & a ecomm website, lemme know
I’m not much into woo-commerce and hence I skip woo-commerce development. But what about product listing alone without any ecommerce functionality - like a catagloue.
Also wanted to know if there are some pre-defined templates to choose from like the way DiVi has, of about 300 templates.
You can get predefined templates: https://bricksdirectory.com/
But there are very few ready-made blocks or layouts ‘free’. It’s possible to publicly share layouts, but unless I’m very stupid (which is possible!) - no-one really does. However, creating the layouts is very quick. My ‘go to’ when lacking inspiration is to go to Kadence, Elementor or Divi templates and ‘riff off’ one of them. It’s very quick to reproduce one.
Where Bricks scores is in how easy it makes templates, dynamic content and styling for CPTs, pages etc. It’s much cleaner and lighter than Divi - and client hand-off is much easier because you can let them use Gutenberg for a lot… and/or there’s some ‘content restriction’ built in to Bricks.
I’d say the built in query and simplicity of building loops and grids makes it ideal for a WooC without WooC site.
