Paragraphs is the future of content creation.
The content creator is empowered to flexibly combine predefined visual components. A rich landing page with a slideshow, a testimonial, a form, a parallax background image and action buttons is easy to create without a site builder getting involved.

We need modular content and a better way to manage its creation.
