New: remix a demo site in your browser – no sign-up, nothing to install. Try it

Try it in your browser

Remix a demo site, right here.

A full copy of a Midground demo site opens in the editor below – in your browser, with nothing to install and no sign-up. Change a heading, add a scroll effect, look at it on a phone.

Starting WordPress in your browser…

The first time takes 10–30 seconds. Nothing to install; your changes stay in this tab.

Runs on WordPress Playground (playground.wordpress.net), which runs WordPress in your browser. It is a full copy of the demo site with Midground, and your changes stay in this tab.

Four things to try

Take the tourIt starts by itself and shows you the editor in about a minute.
Change the wordsClick a heading on the page and type. It is the real page, not a preview.
Add an effectChoose an element, open its effects and pick one – then scroll to see it.
Check the phoneSwitch to the phone view at the top and change what should differ there.

Like what you made?

Put Midground on your own site. A beta licence is free, arrives by e-mail in a minute and needs no card.

Where is my work saved?

Only in this browser tab. Close it, and the copy is gone. To keep what you build, install Midground on your own site.

What is WordPress Playground?

An open-source project from the WordPress community that runs a complete WordPress in your browser. The copy you see is a real WordPress site with Midground installed.

Why does it take a few seconds?

Your browser downloads WordPress and the demo site, and starts them. The second time is faster.

Can I try it on a phone?

It runs, but the editor is made for a computer screen. On a phone, send yourself the link and open it later.
