I call Blocksy the “modern standard” for a reason. While many legacy themes still load heavy assets globally, Blocksy utilises an intelligent code-splitting architecture built on React and Webpack. It only loads the JavaScript required for the specific components on the screen.
For me, it is the perfect balance between power and performance. The granular Header and Footer builder allows me to architect complex navigation structures without the overhead of a heavy page builder. It feels reactive, lightweight, and deeply customisable without needing a degree in engineering to manage. When a client wants a high-end, bespoke look but demands a fast “Time to First Byte,” Blocksy is my default deployment.
