| Submission declined on 8 May 2024 by Chaotic Enby (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Bricks Builder is a WordPress theme and site builder developed by Thomas Ehrig, launched in 2021. Designed to facilitate the construction of customizable WordPress sites, Bricks integrates both theme and page builder functionalities into a single platform..[1]
Bricks Builder combines various web development tools within a unified interface, allowing users to control both design and functionality aspects of their WordPress sites. Its integrated approach aims to streamline the web development process by reducing the dependency on multiple plugins and external tools.
History edit
Thomas Ehrig began his journey in the WordPress ecosystem in 2008, developing and offering premium themes. After gaining recognition for his themes on platforms like CreativeMarket and ThemeForest, Ehrig conceived the idea for Bricks at the end of 2017. The builder was officially launched in 2021, following the successful introduction of HappyFiles, a media folder plugin for WordPress, in 2020.[2]
Philosophy edit
Developed by Thomas Ehrig, Bricks Builder emphasizes a community-driven development approach. This method leverages user feedback via an open idea board and roadmap to guide feature development. This strategy seeks to ensure the builder evolves in alignment with user needs, fostering a participatory development environment.
Features edit
The builder is recognized for its real-time editing capabilities and robust integration with WooCommerce. It supports dynamic data handling, enabling personalized and interactive website content. Bricks operates simultaneously as both a plugin and a theme, which simplifies setup and improves compatibility with a range of hosting environments[3]
Market position edit
Upon entering the competitive WordPress builder market, Bricks positioned itself against established products like Elementor by prioritizing performance and customizability. Its focus on user feedback as a core component of development distinguishes it from competitors that may adopt more centralized development practices.
Community impact and reception edit
Since its introduction, Bricks Builder has cultivated a community of users who contribute to its ongoing development and provide peer support. This community-driven model not only assists in product refinement but also encourages a collaborative approach to tackling common development challenges.
The direct integration of user feedback into the product development lifecycle represents a shift toward more adaptive and responsive software development practices within the WordPress ecosystem. While this model promotes innovation and alignment with user expectations, it presents challenges in maintaining scalability and consistency as the product and its user base grow.
