ClassyBlocks transforms how you style Gutenberg blocks. Instead of wrestling with theme CSS, writing repetitive rules, or switching back and forth between editors, you can create and apply custom CSS classes directly from the block editor — with
real-time preview and
one-click application.
Whether you're building a simple landing page or a complex multi-site network, ClassyBlocks keeps your workflow fast, consistent, and maintainable.
Key Features
- Custom CSS Class Manager — Create your own library of CSS classes with full support for
:hover, :focus, :active, and :visited pseudo-states. Name, describe, and organize each class with its own CSS rules.
- 9 Built-in CSS Frameworks — Bootstrap 5.3, Materialize, Pure CSS, Bulma, UIkit, Spectre, Semantic UI, Foundation, and Tailwind CSS. Toggle each framework on/off independently for the editor and the frontend.
- Live Preview in Gutenberg — See exactly how each class looks in real time, directly inside the block editor. No more guesswork or page reloads.
- One-Click Application — Apply any custom or framework class to a block with a single click. No typing class names manually.
