What Are Blocks?
A block is a ready-made section of a website layout, such as a Banner, Footer, Pricing, or Contacts section, which you can use to build your website:
With blocks, you don't have to add every single button, icon, photo, or menu option to your web page by hand. These larger building blocks of a web page layout common to all web sites are preconfigured for you. Select your Header, Footer, Banner, or Menu from the library of ready-made blocks, drag and drop it onto an available placeholder and modify it to suit your needs.
