WordPress is the world's most popular content management system because it makes building websites simple. There are many WordPress themes you can choose from but if you want a truly unique website, you’d need to create a theme of your own. The problem is that building your own WordPress theme is hard.
Now I know what you’re thinking “there’s a million and one tutorials out there on how to create WordPress themes” and while I do agree with you, the reality is that most designers prefer to have the design freedom offered by page builders as opposed to working with code.
It was this same desire for design freedom that motivated me to try Oxygen Builder, a WordPress visual theme builder plugin that enables you to build entire WordPress websites from scratch without code.

What is Oxygen Builder?
“Oxygen is a plugin for WordPress that allows you to visually design your site, from header to footer, without needing to write any code. If you want complete control over the look and feel of your WordPress site, Oxygen is what you've been looking for.” – Oxygen Builder
Have you ever wanted to use a premium WordPress theme on your site but didn't want to spend the money every time you want to use it on another site? Do you wish WordPress gave you more freedom in terms of custom designs? If yes, then Oxygen is a no-brainer.
I’ve tried tools like Elementor, Beaver Builder and Divi and while they’re more than capable page builders, none of them really comes close the sheer number of possibilities provided by Oxygen Builder. If you want complete control over the look and feel of your WordPress site, Oxygen is what you’ve been looking for.
The closest comparison to Oxygen Builder would have to be Webflow, a modern website builder that allows designers to make the websites they want while outputting clean, semantic HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

How is Oxygen Builder different from other WordPress page builders?
There are several benefits to using Oxygen over the competition. Primarily, users of Oxygen enjoy faster loading sites with cleaner markup, less bloat, and far more power in controlling the design and layout of their site. Additionally, most competitors are page builders, whereas Oxygen is a full-fledged site builder for designing your entire site, head to toe and everything in between.
While some page builders like Elementor act as a layer on top of your WordPress, Oxygen Builder completes disables your current theme which reduces clutter and allows for faster load times.
Please note that Oxygen Builder does not delete your theme, just disables it while the plugin is active.
Oxygen Builder is not:
• A page builder
• A WordPress theme
Oxygen Builder is:
• A theme builder
• A WordPress plugin
