This visual guide will walk you through important responsive web design concepts and how to implement them visually inside Webflow.
All the elements on this page are all blocks inside of other blocks (aka “Box Model”). When dragging web elements, you drag them from one block and drop them into another. That’s how HTML works!
Perfect for any business with 20 or more employees.

All the features without the limitations. All you can eat. (This is a paragraph element)
Add elements to your website by clicking on the [ + ] icon in the upper left hand corner. Below are some of the most basic structure elements in web design - sections, containers and columns.
A Section takes up 100% of the width of the browser window if you add it to the Body (the canvas of a website).
It’s great for the big horizontal sections of a website.
A Container is a 960px block centered in the middle of the browser. Usually most website content is added inside of a Container so that it’s centered. Containers are usually added to the Body or a Section element.
Adding Columns are the fastest way to build a unique website layout. To edit how many columns you want in different devices, just click on the Gear Icon in the top right corner to access element settings.
Select an element and add a class in the right style panel (Brush Icon). In this panel you can add text and graphic styles like font color, line height, gradients, borders, shadows, and more. Visual web design is way more fun than coding right?

The Dark Beer of Lakewood, Colorado
The legendary stout was born out of the beautiful matrimony of a mountain man and his most beloved thing, the city of Lakewood in Colorado. The mountain man also loved his axe and his single-shot Remington rifle, but not as much as he loved his city. He dreamed of her flowy rivers and majestic mountains. So he named his greatest stout after her. Thus the glorious stout was birthed out of a mountain man’s heart.
“I crafted this glorious beer to express my undying love for my beautiful city.”

You can easily create variations of an element by adding additional classes on top of each other and adding different styles on those classes. Check out the example below where we have different variations of a button.
In Webflow you first design your website for desktop devices and then make changes on mobile devices (access the Device icons in the top bar). Adding styles in a mobile device will override the desktop styles.
You got it! There are tons of people learning Webflow and web design every day. A great place to start is the video tutorials. Then head on over to the support center or community forum.
