Thanks @thatsfinsweet @joekrug for Client-first. This changes my BEM approach of developing into a better way of working with Webflow. Simple and accessible for anyone.

I am getting ready to ship this project off to the client. This was a lot of fun to develop, and I love seeing more designers switch to @webflow. I know they’ll be able to manage the site easily after handoff, thanks to the @thatsfinsweet client-first method.

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.

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 is like the foundations of a modern super energy efficient house. It does all the heavy (and tedious!) lifting so you can focus all your creative energy on making the bricks & mortar feel like a home."

Client-first is literally became a industry standard while building out in Webflow. It makes structure, spacing, naming so much easy and increases productivity while building the websites. Also it helps other Developers easily understand structuring of the website! Game changer!

One goal for this year is to become a @thatsfinsweet client-first certified agency/dev. It seems like it will soon be an even better indicator of expertise/skill than being a certified Webflow expert.
