# Add a Unit

## What is a Unit?

A Pro mode unit is an item to operate within a block. There’s 2 unit types:<br>

* A **layout** is a structural basis of how all the parts of the block will be positioned relative to each other to look harmonious;
* An **element** is a building unit of a block that contains different types of content (e.g. image, video, text, etc.).
