Why is Webflow the best alternative to WordPress
Many users find it cumbersome to create a unique and customized web page because design and coding often exist in separate silos. Most designers are forced to illustrate their designs with a visual tool and then use another coding tool. Converting interactive digital content into code is a huge challenge.
Most web tools don't let developers optimize their designs to fit different screens. Instead, they need to publish the page to see if it really works. Webflow allows users to create visual designs that are converted into in-tool code. With Webflow, developers can see the finished result while developing. This important feature makes visible the creative possibilities available in this visual development tool.
