What is RapidWeaver Elements?

Elements is a no‑code website builder for macOS that generates fast, modern, standards‑based sites.

Behind the scenes, Elements is powered by Tailwind CSS and AlpineJS, giving you a rock‑solid, modern foundation without requiring you to write code. The app builds a custom, minimal CSS bundle for each project in real time, so your sites stay lean and performant.

Elements works great for:

• Personal and portfolio sites

• Small business and client sites

• Blogs and content‑heavy sites using the built‑in CMS

• Long‑form content, digital gardens, and knowledge bases

• Landing pages and marketing sites

If you want more detail on how Elements is structured under the hood, see Core Concepts.
