Palet implements a WYSIWYG editor using a component-based architecture where users drag pre-built UI elements (sections, cards, forms, galleries) onto a canvas and see changes rendered immediately in a split-view or full-screen preview. The builder likely uses a virtual DOM or similar abstraction to decouple the editing interface from the live preview, enabling instant visual feedback without page reloads. This approach trades deep customization for speed—users compose pages from a curated library rather than writing HTML/CSS.
Unique: Optimized for speed-to-launch with a minimal component library and instant visual feedback loop, rather than comprehensive design flexibility—the constraint is intentional to reduce decision paralysis for non-technical users
vs alternatives: Faster onboarding and simpler mental model than Webflow (which exposes CSS/design tokens) or WordPress (which requires plugin ecosystem navigation), at the cost of customization depth
Palet provides a library of pre-designed templates (portfolio, landing page, product showcase, etc.) that users can select and customize rather than starting from a blank canvas. Templates are likely stored as JSON or component trees that define layout structure, default styling, and placeholder content. Users then modify text, images, and colors within the template's constraints, significantly reducing the time to a functional site. This pattern prioritizes template quality and curation over infinite customization.
Unique: Curated, opinionated template library designed for speed rather than breadth—fewer templates but higher quality and better onboarding guidance per template
vs alternatives: Faster than Wix (which has 500+ templates requiring filtering) or building custom in Webflow, but less flexible than WordPress theme marketplaces that allow deeper structural changes
Palet exposes interactive components (buttons, forms, modals, accordions, tabs) that respond to user actions without requiring code. The builder likely implements a visual event binding system where users can connect component interactions (click, submit, hover) to actions (navigate, show/hide, scroll) through a UI rather than JavaScript. This is powered by an underlying state management layer (possibly Redux-like or Svelte-style reactivity) that tracks component state and triggers updates. The abstraction hides complexity while enabling common interactive patterns.
Unique: Visual event binding system that abstracts away JavaScript while supporting common interactive patterns—likely uses a declarative event graph rather than imperative code
vs alternatives: More accessible than Webflow's custom code editor or Framer's JavaScript requirements, but less powerful than platforms allowing conditional logic or custom functions
Palet includes responsive design tooling that allows users to preview and adjust layouts for mobile, tablet, and desktop viewports. The builder likely uses CSS media queries or a breakpoint system under the hood, with a visual interface showing how components reflow at different screen sizes. Users can adjust component properties (size, visibility, spacing) per breakpoint without writing CSS. This approach ensures sites work across devices without requiring users to understand responsive design principles.
Unique: Simplified breakpoint system with visual preview that abstracts CSS media queries—likely uses preset breakpoints and property overrides rather than exposing raw CSS
vs alternatives: More intuitive than Webflow's breakpoint editor (which exposes CSS concepts) but less flexible than hand-coded responsive design or Bootstrap's grid system
Palet provides a content editing interface where users can add and modify text, upload images, and embed media (videos, maps, embeds) directly into pages. The builder likely stores content separately from layout (content/presentation separation), allowing users to edit text and images without touching design. Image uploads are probably processed through a CDN or image optimization service to ensure fast loading. This abstraction lets non-technical users manage content without understanding file formats or optimization.
Unique: Automatic image optimization and CDN delivery without user configuration—users upload images and the platform handles resizing, format selection, and caching
vs alternatives: Simpler than WordPress media library (no plugin ecosystem or manual optimization) but less flexible than Contentful or Strapi (which expose content structure and versioning)
Palet handles the entire deployment pipeline—users click 'Publish' and the site is immediately live on Palet's servers or a custom domain. The platform likely manages DNS configuration, SSL certificates, and CDN distribution automatically. This removes the need for users to understand hosting, domain registration, or deployment processes. The architecture probably uses a serverless or containerized backend that scales automatically based on traffic.
Unique: One-click deployment with automatic SSL, DNS, and CDN configuration—abstracts entire hosting and DevOps layer for non-technical users
vs alternatives: Faster than Webflow or WordPress hosting setup (which require more configuration) but less flexible than self-hosted solutions or platforms with advanced server access
Palet provides a UI for managing SEO metadata (page titles, meta descriptions, keywords, Open Graph tags) without editing HTML. The platform likely auto-generates some metadata (e.g., page titles from content) and allows users to override it. Structured data (JSON-LD) for rich snippets may be automatically generated or configurable through a form. This abstraction helps non-technical users improve search visibility without understanding HTML or SEO best practices.
Unique: Simplified SEO UI that abstracts HTML meta tags and JSON-LD—auto-generates common metadata and allows form-based overrides without exposing raw code
vs alternatives: More accessible than Webflow's SEO settings (which expose more technical options) but less comprehensive than dedicated SEO tools like Yoast or Semrush
Palet allows users to create forms (contact forms, sign-up forms, surveys) visually by dragging form fields onto a page. The platform handles form submission, validation, and storage without requiring backend code. Submissions are likely stored in a database and can trigger email notifications to the site owner. This abstraction eliminates the need for users to set up backend APIs, databases, or email services. Form data may be exportable as CSV or integrable with third-party services via webhooks or Zapier.
Unique: Visual form builder with automatic submission handling and email notifications—no backend code or third-party service configuration required
vs alternatives: Simpler than Webflow's form setup (which requires more configuration) but less flexible than Typeform or Jotform (which offer advanced logic and integrations)
