Client-First is so, literally, client-first I was able to start using it without looking at any documentation. It allows non-developers to dive into class-editing in the most intuitive manner possible, speeding up builds, revisions, and bringing more and more talent to Webflow

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.

The initial learning curve for the @thatsfinsweet client-first system is tough but once you've got it down, I promise you'll hop on the bandwagon too. I built a client's landing page in a single day, all responsive sizes plus animations.

Looking into @thatsfinsweet Client First system and realizing that a lot of my ways of naming CSS already matches with it. But so good to see how clean it all is. Will make me go from being like 60% okay to 100% okay when if comes to this stuff.

Big shout out to @thatsfinsweet for their client-first design system, this is the building block that I have been patiently waiting for someone to create for two years now. Used it for the first time yesterday and it is a fundamental game changer framework for organizing projects

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.

Client-First has been key in the scaling our agency. We were able to hand the docs off to potential hires and quickly found candidates who were on board with using Client-First. Now, all of our build across our developers are the same and can be easily updated across the board.

Spent over 6 hours renaming and reorganizing all my classes in a previous project according to @thatsfinsweet's Client-first Style System. Totally worth it, everything is so organized now
