It is a real revolution when it comes to designing and implementing both static and dynamic websites and even ready-made e-commerce systems.

Who is this course for
Webflow is a brilliant tool for all willing to start their adventure with creating websites - simple visual interface, extensive possibilities, hosting, SSL, custom domains - all in a few clicks. Therefore, this course is a good starting point for beginners who want to build a website. However, without a solid foundation of HTML and CSS it's pretty difficult to work with Webflow. That is why I strongly recommend that you do at least the basic HTML and CSS course before Webflow courses. Webflow's greatest potential is for those of you who already understand web technology and are able to create websites. In the hands of such people, Webflow is a tool that incredibly speeds up work and delivering new projects to clients. Webflow is also a great tool for UI/UX designers and web developers who can work and deliver projects in a completely new way!
Modern Visual Editor
If you've heard about WYSiWYG - Webflow has practically nothing to do with them. The code generated by Webflow is clean, aesthetic HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and its quality is only determined by how well you know the tool and web technologies. Weblflow allows you to create pages in record time, thanks to the fact that you do not have to write code. Most tasks can be done in visual editor while our website is still based on semantic code and modern standards!
Webflow's Abilities
They are practically endless. Apart from the fact that you can create static pages, you also have the option of preparing dynamic websites based on CMS and even complete E-commerce systems, building them from ready-made components. Webflow, however, differs from "page builders" - we usually start from a blank page, and thus we can implement completely custom layout. Then, with the help of Webflow - publish the finished website, add domain name, hosting and... violla! Your website is live without difficult configuration. In addition your client can edit page directly in the browser with the help of the built-in CMS Editor!
What you'll learn?
In this course, we'll focus on Layout - the basis of effective work in Webflow. This means that we will discuss the semantic elements of the page (HTML) as well as its styling (CSS). You will learn how to use popular CSS Layout constructs such as Grid or Flexbox in Webflow. I will show you how to implement a complete page layout from a blank page, which we previously designed in the Adobe XD course. If you want to learn how I designed the website itself - I refer you to this course. You can rewrite it in advance or in parallel with the Webflow course in front of you.
