Systems Architecture & Documented Implementations

Bricks Builder Systems

Context

This topic documents the use of Bricks Builder as a system for constructing WordPress sites with consistent structure, reusable components, and predictable behavior across projects.

The focus is on treating Bricks Builder as an architectural layer rather than a visual design tool, emphasizing repeatability and long‑term maintainability.

System Components

Core components include templates, global styles, layout sections, and reusable blocks. These elements are defined with clear roles and constraints to reduce divergence across pages and sites.

Decisions favor a limited, intentional component set over extensive customization to support clarity and governance.

Workflow Patterns

Workflow patterns center on documented setup steps, controlled modification of templates, and consistent naming conventions. Changes are introduced through defined pathways rather than ad hoc edits.

This approach supports quality assurance, onboarding, and knowledge transfer across projects.

Operational Considerations

Operational use prioritizes predictability and ease of change. Limiting variation reduces the risk of unintended layout regressions and simplifies updates.

This topic serves as a reference for evaluating when and how Bricks Builder should be extended or modified within an established system.
