Somentra comes with two different page builders: Elementor and WPBakery Page Builder. Interesting, isn’t it? They are both fast & easy to use, have front-end editing, and of course, you can design anything you need.

WPBakery Page Builder (Visual Composer) is a visual layout builder that allows you to forget about the syntax of the shortcodes and create multiple layouts within minutes without writing a single line of code! You can edit, delete, increase and decrease the size of each item.
Furthermore, you can reorder the elements, copy-paste, and save templates. It has a very simple and instinctive interface!
The best part here is the Somentra offers an enhanced WPBakery Page Builder, which means that you will get Somentra handcrafted elements and extensive row & column options.
Don’t forget to read the Rows and Columns with Somentra’s enhanced Page Builder category articles on this documentation, where you will discover the amazing unique features and possibilities.

Elementor is a drag and drop builder that uses live editing, which can be really useful. Also, no need to use code or remember anything. You just select the elements you need and style them as you wish. You can copy-paste and save elements and use them in other sections too.
Somentra provides some handcrafted elements for this builder as well! You will use your favorite builder with some Somentra elements designed to follow the theme style and functionality.

Somentra uses indeed the latest versions of WPBakery Page Builder and Elementor only after we test it before we include it in our theme. This means that we handle the updates of these (and any) bundled plugins. Last but not least, Somentra’s elements are specially handmade for the theme’s preferences and they harmoniously use the amazing visual interface of the builders.

Last, the theme is also optimized with WP default editor, Gutenberg editor. By adding the Somentra Gutenberg Extension plugin you will get some Somentra blocks.

So, from the following, many different options regarding builders appear to use with the theme.
