Interesting. The component I am most curious about is the Webflow export to VSCode and how to handle updates. We have started working with Astro and this is our current roadblock
Currently we export the Webflow site and upload this to VSCode every time we make an update in Webflow. We're setting up Git to handle version control but will still have to export Webflow when we make changes there. I may explore using DevLink next!
@@ruari-mcn-fs Cool. It's the version control in Git I am most interested in how to manage. We've used dev link a bit but don't see it as an option for this use case. The HTML does not get exported so you still face the same manual export and version control problem.
It's probably just what their client wanted. Even with the usual JavaScript frameworks, you'd still have to code the HTML and CSS for the existing site. Seems like they just hooked up a new CMS here. I do stuff like this for my own projects to save money, but it's not really "worth it" for client work unless they specifically need it like in their case with client's own server.
More of this type of content!
Sure! Anything in particular? A more in-depth tutorial that goes into detail on how to do this perhaps?

You can create a python script which listen to webflow webhook "site publish" and do the updating ;)

@@yash7630 Exactly! Our client wanted to use Webflow but due to GDPR wouldn't use Webflow Hosting or any US-based hosting provider.
