Question
Why is Wix better than traditional coding

Answer
Developing on Wix offers the following core benefits:

Efficiency: Wix offers a ready-to-go development environment with no setup needed. Concurrent editing allows developers and designers to work side by side, drastically reducing site development time.

Flexibility: Wix provides a unified set of APIs for website and app development—ensuring seamless integration. You can also use external tools, NPM packages, and expose your site externally with Wix Headless or HTTP functions.

Customization: Choose between the following coding environments; the Code Editor, the VS Code-based Wix IDE, or Wix CLI with GitHub integration. This gives you the freedom to work in your preferred setup.
