A Section Background in WordPress Gutenberg allows you to enhance your website's design by applying visually appealing backgrounds to blocks or groups of blocks. It serves as a powerful design element to create contrast, highlight content, and establish a clear visual hierarchy on your page.

You can customize the background settings using Gutenberg’s block editor without requiring coding knowledge. Additional styling options include adjusting opacity, adding overlays, and setting fixed or scrollable backgrounds for a parallax effect.

For further flexibility, plugins and custom CSS can be used to unlock advanced background effects and animations. Whether you're designing a hero section, a content divider, or a call-to-action block, the Section Background feature in Gutenberg offers endless creative possibilities to elevate your website’s aesthetics.
