Gutenberg Blocks - Seamless Compatibility

Even before the official release of Gutenberg, Astra was among the first themes to become Gutenberg compatible. Over the years, this compatibility grew stronger. Today, Astra offers the most extensive library of free starter templates for Gutenberg, the ability to create custom layouts with the editor, and automatically manages Gutenberg blocks’ styling and spacing.

Unparalleled Performance

Every single line of code in Astra is optimized for performance. We have the numbers to prove it.

Render blocking jQuery impacts website performance. Astra uses Vanilla JavaScript instead, which is much faster.
