No limitations. Use any plugin, any PHP code.

Instant WordPress preview

Pinegrow works with other frameworks

Work with the actual content of your WordPress website
Select a HTML element with WordPress actions and choose Import WordPress HTML. Pinegrow will run the element through WordPress and merge the resulting HTML back into the page.

Pure HTML source files

Pinegrow WordPress actions and their parameters are stored in HTML element attributes with prefix wp-. Pinegrow doesn't add any special elements to the page and it doesn't change the layout of the page.

Pure WordPress PHP export

Exported PHP files look just like a WordPress professional would code them by hand. Template parts let you create themes that can be easily modified with child themes.

Solution for your whole team

Since WordPress tags are stored as unobtrusive attributes in a regular HTML file, the theme HTML files can be edited by designers, front-end and WordPress developers. No more porting design and layout changes back to PHP.

Works with your favorite tools

Pinegrow WP can be used alongside your favorite web development apps like Dreamweaver, WebStorm, SublimeText etc. You can use it to convert HTML code exported by tools like Webflow and Macaw into a WordPress theme.
