It means that we in Kvalifik know the Webflow platform inside-out. From design and development tools to integrations and workflows, we have a complete understanding of the platform's features and capabilities.

Kvalifik is featured in the Webflow Experts Directory and our Senior Digital Designer is one of the fastest in the world when it comes to building websites in Webflow.

Can you make websites look good in all devices with Webflow?

Yes, Webflow makes it easy to create websites that work well on a variety of devices. At Kvalifik, we make sure that all our websites are fully responsive and mobile-friendly.

Responsive web design (RWD) is a web development approach that creates dynamic changes to the appearance of a website, depending on the screen size and orientation of the device being used to view it.

The platform includes built-in responsive breakpoints that allow users to customize the design of their website for different screen sizes.

A breakpoint in a responsive design is the “point” at which a website’s content and design will adapt in a certain way in order to provide the best possible user experience.

Examples of common breakpoints are:

  • Mobile phones: 320px — 480px.
  • Desktops: 1025px — 1200px.
  • Tablets: 481px — 768px.
  • Small screens, laptops: 769px — 1024px.
  • Extra large screens, TV: 1201px and more

By using these breakpoints and the device icons in the Designer Editor, we can ensure that your website looks and performs well on computers, tablets, and mobile phones.

How do I edit my content on a Webflow site?

To edit the content on a Webflow website you can use the Webflow Editor. It provides a simplified interface focused on website content management that allows editors to make changes to text and images in real time without accessing design or structural elements.

Will I be limited if I choose to build my website in Webflow?

The short answer is that Webflow is a powerful tool that can be used to create a wide range of websites that can be expanded indefinitely but it can have some limitations in terms of functionality.

Depending on your specific needs and goals for your website, we can recommend creating it in Webflow or making it totally custom. Take a look at our services or see our previous cases if you want to know more about how we use Webflow in Kvalifik.
