Description
Tabilo is a flexible, native table builder block for the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). Create beautiful pricing tables, comparison tables, data tables, booking tables and more — right inside the editor, with a live preview and zero shortcodes.
Unlike traditional WordPress table plugins that lock you into plain text cells, Tabilo lets you insert any Gutenberg block inside a table cell — headings, paragraphs, images, buttons, lists, icons, star ratings, and even other blocks. If you can build it with blocks, you can put it in a Tabilo table.
Start fast with 40+ pre-designed table patterns, then customize colors, borders, spacing, and typography visually — no code required.
