Designers using Webflow: "Look I'm a react dev now"
Developers using Webflow: "Look I'm a webflow dev now."

For real though, for static sites, Webflow is changing the game. As a frontend dev in a digital agency environment, I'm seeing myself turn into a Webflow dev.

It's been a long way coming, but frontend dev is becoming less and less a thing on static site builds.

Trying out Webflow's new "Devlink" feature. (which is now open beta)

If you want efficiently convert a Webflow site to a Next.JS site, it seems reasonably good.

However, Webflow's terminology that you "sync components" is misleading. It's more like "exporting" components as code. Once exported, you cannot use Webflow's designer without overwriting all code changes.

Overall it feels like a helpful time-saver, but not a game-changer if you cannot sync back into Webflow.
