Kirki allows developers to add advanced controls to their customizer as well as customize the way the customizer looks and feels.
You can add beautiful options to your theme's customizer panel and allow your users to tweak any aspect of their theme.
You've got 23 control types that you can use, styling options for the customizer, as well as automatic calculations for your styles using the output argument on your controls.
You can use the default WordPress customizer syntax or one of the 2 alternative syntaxes that we have provided for you. Each project has different needs and we understand that, so the choice is up to you.
Converting from the default customizer to the syntax used by Kirki will only take a few minutes and will save you a lot of time in the long run. :)
