I’m in the proces of setting up webflow for our agency.
Now I’m looking for webflow users that have experience converting designs to WordPress, Drupal or Magento.
I would like to have a look at projects you already did. So please share if you can.
If all works out well we will be needing 1 or more freelancers that can do this for our projects on a regular basis.
Also I would like to know the pros and cons from a developers point.
I’ve converted a ton of websites from Webflow to Wordpress, CraftCMS, Shopify etc. The thing about Webflow is it creates very clean code from a development standpoint. So you can simply start creating something without worrying about the set up of a CMS. The other reason, is their animation library. Webflow has already done the majority of the work for creating really robust animations without having to worry about learning javascript.
The only reason you’d need to use another CMS is if you’re looking for something that webflow can’t provide or want to provide your own hosting. For example, I usually do the majority of the styling / animations in webflow and then integrate it into the CMS. So, for this site: https://katborchart.com, we wanted to create a home page with beautiful scrolled animations but also give her the ability of updating her galleries. Now we all know that Webflow doesn’t offer the ability of uploading multiple images at once and it would have taken her forever to do it on her own. So she came to me, we talked about her needs and decided that CraftCMS was going to be the best solution for her needs. Now, she can update her site whenever she wants without relying on me to do it manually for her. Her home page is quite custom, and when she decides to update it, she will hire me to build it out with animations, and when she does I will rebuild the home page in Webflow and export the code and integrate it into the CMS. It’s very simple from a development standpoint and would take me longer to code it by hand rather than just building it in Webflow.
Let me know if you have any questions, feel free to email me to talk further about it: me@nathanielperales.com
I would be glad to provide regular work for your projects. I have a ton of Webflow, Wordpress, Shopify and some Foxycart experience.

It is very simple to transfer the code from Webflow to your own hosting. Or it can be transferred to Wordpress or other CMS, depending on the needs of the project.
I am reliable, easy to work with and offer great freelance rates. Feel free to contact me and we can discuss further.
