Is there a good alternative?

Not that I know of. Webflow to code export / manual cleaning up and self hosting probably.
All of the web builders will price aggressively if they see traction and by that time you’re locked in
I mean Figma to code … 🤦♂️
I was wondering who would actually recommend webflow 😂 I’ve inherited a several webflow sites at work, it takes me 3-4 times as long to do something I could have done by hand with a static site generator and headless cms.
Probably depends on your level of expertise. I definitely work much faster in webflow
It has its audience, I’m sure it’s great for those that prefer not to write html/css by hand and maybe have more of a design background rather than development but for a developer that’s been doing just that for more than 20 years, webflow is painful 🫢
Yeah but very few devs can provide the same level of attention to detail as a designer can directly in a builder. Of course it depends on requirements and priorities so design is not the only thing to consider.
Sure, pros/cons as with anything. I could list a whole bunch of things why I dislike it but I won’t bore you 🫢
Yeah. Fkn fiat. There is no free lunch.
WordPress works though
Wordpress. It does everything.
