WYSIWYG web design has been tried since the internet has existed, but people keep coming back to writing UI in code. How does this compare to other tools? What is the best WYSIWYG tool today?

I think, with most WYSIWYG editors in the past, a developer runs into some limitation, forcing them out of the system into uncharted/hacky territory. But for Plasmic, developers are a first-class citizen.

For example, one huge advantage with Plasmic is that Plasmic components run within your React tree. This means you can naturally embed Plasmic components in your React components, and even the other way around!
