    • 3.5/5 stars. Very impressed at first with many options for color customization, with a theme selector or individual color selector. Plenty of options for header and footer layouts. But, the lack of options for typography customization is a huge downfall. Also, layout is a bit overwhelming with a single column showing the entirety of each post and very large header typography.

    • 3/5 stars. Nice, simple and clean layout with easy to read typography. Customization options for typography and buttons, some color customization but very limited without purchasing pro. Plenty of widget options. Overall, good layout and color incorporation, but not the best option due to limited customization without purchase of upgrade.

    • 3.5/5 stars. Nice layout of posts, sidebar and footer widgets options and customization. Ability to change typeface, limited color customization but still some. Default options are a little tacky, but they can be worked with to improve through customization. Not the most simple and clean layout, but it could be good for just a basic website.

    • Our default theme for 2020 is designed to take full advantage of the flexibility of the block editor. Organizations and businesses have the ability to create dynamic landing pages with endless layouts using the group and column blocks. The centered content column and fine-tuned typography also makes it perfect for traditional blogs. Complete editor styles give you a good idea of what your content will look like, even before you publish. You can give your site a personal touch by changing the background colors and the accent color in the Customizer. The colors of all elements on your site are automatically calculated based on the colors you pick, ensuring a high, accessible color contrast for your visitors.

    • 3.5/5 stars. Good to use if you are not looking for full customization. Default page layout shows all full posts in a singular column down the page, no preview of posts just full thing, but that can be changed in customization. Limited to choosing just background, footer, and accent colors. Widgets limited to footer. No options for typography customization besides additional CSS.
