Open Source Core Components for RapidWeaver Elements

RWElementsCorePack is the official open source collection of core components for RapidWeaver Elements.

What is the Core Pack?

The Elements Core Pack is a curated set of essential components designed specifically for use with Elements.

These components:

  • Cover common layout and content patterns

  • Are designed to be flexible, lightweight, and performant

  • Follow best practices for building Elements components

  • Serve as real-world examples you can learn from and extend

You can use the Core Pack as-is, customise it, or use it as a starting point for your own Elements packs.

Why the Core Pack exists

Elements is built around flexibility and creative freedom. The Core Pack supports that by making high-quality, production-ready components available to everyone.

By open-sourcing the Core Pack, we aim to:

You’re never starting from scratch.
