How Do I Write Code in Webflow?

Welcome to this tutorial on how to write code in Webflow! In this article, we will explore the different ways you can add code to your Webflow projects and enhance your website’s functionality.

Using the Embed Element:

The Embed element in Webflow allows you to add custom code snippets to your project. To use it, simply drag and drop the Embed element onto your page. Once added, you can double-click on it to open the code editor.

To make text bold in HTML, use the tag. For example:

    <b>This text is bold</b>

This will make the text “This text is bold” appear in bold on your web page.

Adding Custom CSS:

If you want to apply custom CSS styles to specific elements on your page, you can do so by adding custom code within Webflow. Here’s how you can achieve that:

  • Create a new CSS class or select an existing one that you want to modify.
  • In the Styles panel, click on the “+” icon next to the class name.
  • Choose “Custom Code” from the dropdown menu.
  • A code editor will appear where you can write your custom CSS rules.

To underline text in HTML, use the tag. For example:

    <u>This text is underlined</u>

This will make the text “This text is underlined” appear with an underline on your web page.

Using Custom Code in the Head and Body:

Webflow also allows you to add custom code in the head and body sections of your site. This is useful when you need to add scripts, meta tags, or other code that should be included globally on all pages.

To create a subheader in HTML, use the

tag. For example:

    <h2>This is a subheader</h2>

This will create a subheader with the text “This is a subheader”. You can use

,

, and so on for different levels of subheaders.

Using HTML Lists:

If you want to create lists in your web page, you can use HTML list elements. There are two types of lists: ordered and unordered.

An ordered list is created using the

    tag, and each item within the list is defined using the

  1. tag. For example:

        <ol>
            <li>First item</li>
            <li>Second item</li>
            <li>Third item</li>
        </ol>
    
    1. First item
    2. Second item
    3. Third item

    An unordered list is created using the

      tag, and each item within the list is defined using the

    • tag. For example:

          <ul>
              <li>First item</li>
              <li>Second item</li>
              <li>Third item</li>
          </ul>
      
      • First item
      • Second item
      • Third item

      By using these HTML styling elements like , ,

      , and lists, you can make your code more visually appealing and improve the structure of your content in Webflow. Experiment with these elements to enhance the appearance and readability of your web pages!
