Very well done. I appreciate all your input and candor.

I am lazy sometimes and i like the idea that things look amazing right out of the box. So my choice was clearly with breakdance. Also for simple websites i would never have to worry about any plugins that crash the side. So far so good. I am no web dev.. yet.. I just love building websites somehow. And i like to build some for friends and stuff. And i purchased Breakdance and started to play around with it. Then i simply wanted to experiment a little bit with :hover, transform and transition since the possibilitys are limited and i do indeed know html and css and the builder really drove me crazy on so many things. First it didnt let me change many predefined things. I dont know why exactly but i couldnt override many things. Then the worst part.. Always when i created a new class and changed stuff somehow after a lot of frustration it just deleted my class by itself and said its no more there. This might have a good reason, i dunno. But man i went crazy. So after all when i wanted to change things i needed to dig into the dev tools to check what classes i had to change and i just found it super super annoying. I see it the following. I am a lazy ass stupid dude. Though i am someone who loves to have full control. And i noticed that i know enough html and css (maybe js too in the future) that i could do most visual stuff by myself. I am just too lazy. So what i did i gave bricks a try. Why didnt i before? Because i am lazy and i do indeed know you have to adjust alot to make it look good and that consumes time. Nevertheless. I went to the trybricks platform and did the same thing as i did in bricks. Played aroud with :hover and so on. I created a class. And damn i could do what eeeever i wanted It was like visual studio as a page builder 😆. Well better of course but you get the point. I did nothing crazy but it was so much fun to be able to fully use my little but useful knowledge. I am by far no developer. But i feel that breakdance is more for people who never or almost never want to touch code. And for me thats where the fun gets lost. Because i love code. It has something fascinating. It can be super frustrating too. Especially if you just code in vscode for example. But to get something to work feels so good. This "serotonine-flow" you know what i mean? I BD you just use what the developer did for you. Its so.. meh.. Anyone can do that. I know i will get very frustrated in bricks too. I know it. But the thing is I 1. will have full control 2. I will increase my coding skills which i probably wouldnt in BD. Now my motivation is to use bricks and in between keep learning code also. I dont make any money i dont have any customers. Its just a hobby and i can make some people happy with this for now. I really really hope that custom code wont break with updates. Thats a little bit what i fear. In BD there is the possibility already which keeps beeing part of the whole product and i probably wouldnt have to fear any code problems. But hey thats what a developer does. Solving problems, right? I think i betray myself if i keep beeing lazy and abuse the easiness of Breakdance. Because i want to evolve. Sorry i wrote alot now. That are my current feelings. Ah by the way. It might be subjective. But am i the only one that thinks bricks is still way faster than breakdance? I mean the overall loading time of a site. Literally bricks is close to a self coded site while you do feel the delay more obvious in breakdance. Anyone on the same page?

I have tested both for 2 weeks. And must say that both are revolutionary. Years ahead of Elementor which have crashed most of my websites:) I think that Bricks, after 2 or 3 versions will be unbeatable. But for now Breakdance is more intuitive. Starting for the Form builder too, which allows us to not need any other tool to style the checkboxes, etc. Anyway, both tools are much much better than Elementor and have provided me less headaches:)

Now that's what I call an extensive review. Great stuff man, thanks! They are both great builders, I'd consider Breakdance if it offered lifetime license like Bricks does.

Great video. Very informative, thank you.

nice review. I think that a user with a minimum of programming skills should choose Bricks without hesitation, because the moment you use a builder and you realize that solving a problem that is not foreseen by the builder becomes a nightmare, it is that brikcs becomes a friend . In brikcs any problem can be solved quite easily even if a certain capacity is not natively supported by the builder.

Breakdance itself may be new, but the company behind it has been around for years and is well established.

You should use the rich text box the you can utilize the dynamic data tag within it to pull any data that may be associated to the post, whether it be standard WP info or any custom field you have assigned!

When I open in wordpress admin to edit page and click edit with wordpress, in breakdance all work disappear. I always will be afraid that no one will click to edit with wordpress page after build it with breakdance. Sorry for my english)))

Zion Builder How do you like it besides bricks and brackdance?

I think eventually they'll just be the same, both are powerful from the get go

I took a few days to watch this carefully and even though I already bought Breakdance, I think I'm going to also buy Bricks for larger projects. It seems like for scalability and for people that have more development experience, or work with developers that Bricks is going to be more friendly. As far as how each builder "feels" to use, I prefer Bricks over Breakdance simply because it feels faster and more responsive. If there's a difference between the two it feels like Bricks is a toolbox, whereas Breakdance feels like a kit of Legos.
