The community and Client-First
Here's what the Webflow community is saying
"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."
I also want to express my gratitude to @Joe Krug and the Finsweet team. Without the client-first system, I would not have a clear road map to clean up existing Webflow sites and their messy CSS and component structures. With it, I truly feel like I can call myself a “Webflow expert” without feeling the dreaded imposter syndrome. Thank you!
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
We've been working with Client First since it's Beta and we couldn't work with something else. It gives a common language for clients and freelancers alike, we love it!
Landed my first @webflow build only project 🥳 Gotta give thanks once again to @thatsfinsweet client-first which I heavily used as a selling point.
Client-First should be a mandatory requirement for Webflow projects!
I was lucky to have discovered client first when learning webflow a few months ago. It saved me from building bad websites with no class structures. Thank you for the contribution your team is making to the community
I've heard of it, I've watched people build with it, but today is the first day I'm using it and it's like, "where have you been all my life?!”
It’s the standard! Client-first brings a common language to a highly collaborative community. Don’t be caught building without it.
