</ul>
<h3>Built for speed</h3>
<ul>
<li>At its base – loads only 1 css file and 1 javascript file on the frontend – total bundle size approx 15kb.</li>
<li>CSS file dynamically created, saving resources and requests per page load (+ avoiding inline CSS)</li>
<li>Caches posts + queries for optimum performance</li>
<li>Not jQuery dependant</li>
</ul>
<h3>Includes 7 sample templates</h3>
<p>We’ve included a pack of templates ready for you to customise – check the installation tab for how to import these to your site.</p>
<h3>Multilingual ready</h3>
<p>Custom Layouts should support most multilingual plugins – we use a custom post type to store content that is not stored in the block editor.<br />
* We’ve also added specific support for WPML’s Advanced Translation Editor.</p>
<h3>Known Issues</h3>
<ul>
<li>Admin Template Editor only works on desktop computers (tablets + mobiles not supported)</li>
<li>Admin Template Editor does not work on IE, all other major browsers supported – ** the frontend of this plugin supports IE 11+, no sweat</li>
</ul>
<h3>Roadmap</h3>
<ul>
<li>Improve performance and load speed by providing an option to use CSS Grid for layouts + masonry</li>
<li>Support more CSS unit types in more places</li>
<li>Blocks for WooCommerce</li>
<li>Blocks for ACF</li>
<li>More template blocks (possibly use the block library)</li>
<li>Additional hover options</li>
<li>Additional font options.</li>
<li>Social/sharing blocks</li>
</ul>
