How to use Webflow to build client sites (with maximum happiness 💯)

You may well have heard of Webflow. It's a powerful tool for creating highly functional, performant, standards-compliant, CMS-backed, eCommerce-supporting websites. It works in the browser and it allows a designer with even a rudimentary awareness of HTML & CSS to work in an environment that will be comfortable to anyone familiar with Sketch, Photoshop, etc.

Once you realize that you, as a designer, can control every aspect of the front-end of your designs — directly on a live, production-ready site — you'll be forever changed.

Nelson will walk us through the broad strokes of Webflow's capabilities (it's hard to cover it all), features that are tailor-made for client delivery, and examples of how other teams have used Webflow to create and manage client sites.

Strap the top of your head down, lest it be blown clear off.

🍕Pizza and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided.

This group is intended to help us stay connected, get out of our holes; to always have someone to talk with about trends, workplace issues, design tools and approaches, job opportunities, and digital culture. 300 designers and counting… join up at http://sddd.org
