Yes, Magento is not a full blog or CMS-able thingy, but still.
As I understand WPBakery's Visual Composer (VC for short hereafter), for instance, is only a library of JQuery presets and all you have to do is fill in the contents in required text fields. So why is there no such thing on Magento? It can't all be because of the lame "it's due to Magentos framework"?
Isn't it that Magento developers focus on e-commerce more than design?
So how do we get more designer folks on board of Magento?
So far the only way to get some nice things going on in Magento is to use a "Magento Wordpress Integration"-solution (MWI for short hereafter), like Fishpig's or Sonassi's products.
Fishpig is free and all, but won't accept WP plugins, which means VC is out of the question.
Sonassi on the other hand seems to be more agile, but costs a fortune.
Really, developing a MWI surely must be waaaay more advanced than to just make a VC-like extension?
Or why not "port" VC to Magento?
Just my thoughts.
If you have a tip on page builder for Magento, please don't hesitate! Gimme a sign!
