Leveraging Umbraco’s Block Grid Editor Wattle take a componentised approach to designing and building MemEx websites. The approach breaks a website down into smaller reusable components that can be easily added to a website page, updated, and managed.
Leveraging Umbraco’s innovative Block Grid Editor, Wattle take a componentised approach to designing and building MemEx websites that is swifter, smarter, and puts you in control.
The approach leverages modular components rather than traditional page-based structures, like page templates, and breaks a website down into smaller reusable components that can be easily added to a website page, updated, and managed. Each component represents a self-contained piece of a typical membership website's functionality or content like headers, footers, sliders, navigation menus, carousels, accordions, image blocks, text blocks, and contact forms. These components are designed to match client brand guidelines and to be independent and interchangeable, allowing them to be used across multiple pages and easily modified without affecting other parts of the website.
The approach is hugely beneficial for our clients Content Editors, as individual components can simply be dragged, dropped, and re-ordered to build any type of website page, then populated with text and images. This enables Content Editors to create new web pages with different layouts, or even whole new microsites, without being restricted to a set number of templates or needing additional web development.
