I have tried a variety of ways to build my site (belobog.sk – including Elementor, Otter, Stackable, Spectra among others). I decided for Spectra Pro, and now I found that even free ZoloBlocks suits my needs much better than paid Spectra Pro. And it is also a bit more user friendly. Nice stuff, love from the first sight.
