Getting Started in Webflow

‍

Learning to Webflow

Start with the tutorials and courses in Webflow University. They do a great job of succintly organizing and explaining the basics of every feature in the Webflow UI.

In this course, I'll add some basic notes about the things that confused me, or that were important points of understanding.

Practice, by doing Copywork

Find sites with designs you like, and recreate them in Webflow.

This is called copywork, and has origins at least as far back as Leonardo da Vinci. You learn a lot of technique skills doing copywork, but more importantly, you learn from inside the artist's mind.

• What goals were established, why were they chosen, and how were they pursued?
• What problems were faced, and what decisions were made to resolve them?

In that process, you'll discover what decisions you'd make, and why... and you'll discover your own style in that journey.
