Descripción
Core Framework is a visual CSS framework and design-token builder. Define colors, typography, spacing, layouts, components, utility classes, and custom styles in one project, then generate the CSS used by your WordPress site.
The plugin and all included integrations are free and open source. There is no license activation and no paid feature gate.
Features
- Visual framework and design-token editor

Integrations
Enable the integrations you use from Core Framework Add-ons. Gutenberg, Bricks, Oxygen, and Figma support are included with the plugin; they are not separate paid add-ons.
Marketplace
The Core Framework Marketplace sells optional design kits and packs. Those content products are separate from the plugin and are not required to use any Core Framework feature or integration.
External services
Core Framework works without a Core Framework account or hosted Core Framework backend. It makes an external request only when an administrator selects, previews, or imports a Google-hosted font:
- The bundled font catalog is local. Selecting or previewing a Google Font requests CSS from https://fonts.googleapis.com. Importing it also downloads font files from https://fonts.gstatic.com, after which WordPress serves the saved font files locally. Requests identify the selected font family and variants; as with any web request, Google receives connection information such as the site’s IP address and user agent. No Google API key or Google account is required.
- Google Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms
- Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Direct Figma-to-WordPress synchronization connects the Figma plugin directly to the user’s own WordPress site using a connection key created by a site administrator. Project data is not routed through Core Framework servers.
The plugin’s administration interface, image previews, project storage, CSS generation, and included integrations do not load assets from Core Framework servers. Core Framework does not contact a licensing server and does not require account activation.
