What Is Webflow? Build Modern Websites Without Code

The Webflow platform is an innovative solution for both designers and developers—enabling you to design, develop, and publish fully responsive websites and eCommerce stores visually, without writing a single line of code.

It combines the creative freedom of design tools with the power of web development, giving you complete control to build tailored digital experiences that are beautiful and functional.

Visual development, no code required

Webflow stands out with its approach to visual coding. You can build web pages using a visual interface, while Webflow generates clean HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in the background. This means you’re never limited by technical constraints as a designer—and if needed, you can hand off your work to developers easily, or even export the code directly.

In most cases, though, you won’t need to—because Webflow lets you manage your entire project from concept to launch within a single platform. From static pages to interactive web applications, Webflow helps you move faster and deliver smarter.

Streamlined workflows

By using Webflow, you can eliminate the friction often found between design and development teams. Since you're building everything visually—and can publish instantly—you reduce back-and-forth, speed up decision-making, and improve outcomes that directly benefit your business.

You can collaborate with a team, or sometimes all you need is one skilled person with expertise in Webflow to bring a fully polished project to life.

Built-in SEO tools

Webflow doesn’t just excel at design and development—it also comes packed with SEO-friendly features to help your site get discovered by search engines.

You can easily manage metadata, alt tags, structured data, and canonical tags. Webflow even auto-generates a sitemap for seamless indexing—helping your site show up where it matters.

Collaboration made easy

Webflow offers role-based access and collaborative workspaces so you can define who can edit what. You can share your work-in-progress with clients or team members, get feedback quickly, and keep creating without disruption.

Better yet, if it's time for someone else—like a copywriter—to jump in, they can do so without extensive onboarding. With Editor access, collaborators can add and edit content directly on the live site in real time.

And with Webflow’s powerful CMS, your clients can manage dynamic content like blog posts, portfolios, and more—all without touching a single line of code.

No compromises

Webflow gives you the flexibility to create without limits. You don’t have to choose between design or functionality—you can have both.

Personally, I like to start designing in Figma and, once everything is aligned, I bring the designs into Webflow to begin visually building the site. It’s a seamless transition from static design to interactive, custom site.
