Issue 1-4
Welcome to the inaugural issue of Webflow Weekly. It is simply the best Webflow centric content that I find each week, however this very first issue is covering the first four weeks of 2019. My desire is to share things in the community that I find interesting. Hopefully you'll find something that interests you and maybe hadn't seen yet. Content is divided into the following sections: Webflow Content, Showcases, Tips Tricks and Tutorials, Resources, and Misc.
Webflow
Here's some content from Webflow's official channels.
Set tax classes per product
Taxes can get complex. Some products are exempt from sales tax, while others have lower sales tax — it all depends on the type of product you’re selling.
Breaking the illusion of completeness
Animated transitions add interest, break up the monotony of a page, and give a sense of energy. They also promote scrolling by hitting that reward center of our brains. Animated transitions distinguish one block of content from the next, pushing us to move forward in a design.
Display sale prices by setting a compare-at price
Running sales, promotions, and discounts is a huge part of running an online store. Today we’re releasing our first feature in this realm: the “compare-at price” field.
How to start a Webflow Meetup
Now that you’ve created your Meetup community, you’re ready to create and plan an event! Coworking spaces are a great choice — you get a venue sponsorship and they get promoted through exposure and social-media love.
From Figma to Webflow: turning your static designs into interactive websites
When you’re ready to go beyond prototyping in Figma, Webflow’s ready to help you bring your designs to life — without coding them. Figma has gone from new player to design industry all star in no time. But like most design tools, it stops short at the prototyping phase.
Why we’re using a 4-point grid in Webflow
Over the last few quarters, the design and engineering teams at Webflow have been gradually adopting a more rigid layout grid based on a simple increment of 4. This has made our cross-team collaboration faster, simpler, and less error-prone.
We’re making some changes to the style panel
If you opened the Designer today, you might have noticed a little toggle at the top of the all-important style panel, along with a message that reads: The style panel has a new look and some new features. Give it a try before it goes live for everyone.
Meet the new style panel

Position: sticky
Position: sticky is not a new CSS property, but it’s new to Webflow — and a part of the new style panel we rolled out this morning. This property allows you to pin elements at a specific position as you scroll down the page.

Cleaned up, more legible navigator
Because one UI redesign in a week wasn’t enough, we’ve also made some small updates to the navigator. Why make the change? Well, the navigator is a great way to understand the structure of your page and see all elements in a single, organized place.

The real cost of WordPress
In general, we don’t love directly calling out what you might call a “competitor.” But all too often, Webflow users are forced to answer the question: why this newfangled platform “Webflow” over the so-called “industry standard”?

How to validate startup concepts with Webflow
New products are useless if they don’t fill a need. With Webflow, you can quickly prototype and test your idea without a massive investment. 42% of startups fail because they don’t solve a big enough market problem.
