I just finished watching the video where the same website is edited side‑by‑side using Stacks with Foundation and RapidWeaver Elements and I’m absolutely blown away.

I’ve been a loyal Stacks + Foundation user, thinking that was the most flexible way to build RapidWeaver sites. But seeing how effortless and intuitive Elements is really opened my eyes. The difference in speed and clarity between the two tools is night and day.

In the video, they show editing the same layout first in Stacks and then immediately in Elements. In Stacks, every tweak felt cumbersome: nested stacks, clicking through layers, preview‑mode disconnects. But in Elements, edits happen instantly in a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) view. It’s clean, fast, and visually live. Watching that, I finally understood how much productivity and freedom I’d been missing.

Elements feels like a breath of fresh air. It’s modern, streamlined, and no longer requires juggling multiple plugins or frameworks. Everything is built in. The editing workflow is seamless and updates are instantaneous. No more bouncing between edit mode and preview mode every time I make a small change .

If you’re still on Classic + Stacks, you owe it to yourself to see this side‑by‑side demo. It’s not just better; it’s transformative. Elements is faster, cleaner, and designed with modern web workflows in mind—it truly feels like the future of RapidWeaver.
