The community and Client-First
Here's what the Webflow community is saying
Update — I think I'm going all in on Client First, build on first site so far was a breeze, didn't slow me down at all, quite the opposite. F*n yeah @thatsfinsweet!
I have used webflow for a long time and nothing has sped up my development process as much as client-first. Simple straightforward and very adaptable. Also instrumental in landing my first agency freelance gig. Thanks @thatsfinsweet
A gold standard. When I started Webflow, I was confused to structure my builds.
With Client-First, I am now able to confidently structure, name my classes and build the sites with ease.
Thank you @thatsfinsweet for the gift to the Webflow community.
Hey, I'm just here to say the client-first has been f'in sweet! Beginning my ux journey with my portfolio here. A big thanks to the team!
@thatsfinsweet Client-first is a little bit hard to understand at first but it is one of the best styling system out there 🔥
I have tried a lot of style guide frameworks, @thatsfinsweet client’s first system stands out. Easy to learn, and very easy to build on top. I officially have a webflow style guide system, I can trust.
Thank you so much Finsweet, Client First improved my developing speed so much…love it
Taking on my first rebuild challenge practicing @thatsfinsweet client first style system! This practice is helping me understand webflow deeper and what proper development looks & feels like
Love the @thatsfinsweet client first style guide and created a button-huge in Webflow. Naming conventions can sometimes be a pain, that's why I love Tailwind CSS.
