The community and Client-First
Here's what the Webflow community is saying
I have implemented Client-first by @thatsfinsweet for my Webflow website and I can say, that this is an awesome system for structure Webflow projects.
@joekrug @RayTirado @thatsfinsweet It’s truly amazing what you’ve created, & so generously shared, with the @webflow community. It’s unbelievable that your Chrome extension & Client-first are FREE! Thank you!
Built a couple of sites using the Client-First system by @thatsfinsweet and I'm completely hooked!
Recently came across Client-First by @thatsfinsweet Super dope 🤗Building with Webflow about to get lit 🔥🔥#NoCode
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!
To be honest my work flow is very close to what @thatsfinsweet do for client first. They have made there system truly global to all devs and clients.
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
Client first gives me the structure I need to understand webflow and let's me built professional websites faster!
Client first is not just a structure, it's a life saver for Webflow. I was always frustrating with my class name and structure before client first. When "client first" released, it just changed the way of building website in Webflow. Thanks @thatsfinsweet
