Wix Apps: Design Guides
The Wix Design Guides add-on lets you create rows, columns or cells in your Studio Editor to help structure and design your site in a more organized manner.
The guide appears on your Editor as a colored grid, it does not appear on your live site. The purpose of this is to guide you as you place your elements on your site and make sure everything is aligned correctly.
