No-code and free Finsweet attributes have changed the way we use Webflow. New features, improvements in the control of CMS collections and development of accessibility of sites with aria-labels!

Key points to remember

Webflow is a no-code website creation platform in full development! The tool offers a lot of features and its very committed community is making more and more people talk about this website creation platform these last years.

But who says tool in development, also says that... Webflow still has some technical limitations on website creation. But maybe not for long!

Fundraising, code sharing on Webflow forums, release of attributes by Finsweet ! In short, many resources come to complete the "lacks" of the tool to make it as complete as possible. In this article, we talk to you about the Finsweet Attributes news, which really changed our use of Webflow.

Finsweet

Finsweet is an agency recognised by many in the Webflow community as the best Webflow agency in the world. This American company, founded by Joe Krug, is notably known for :

  • His WAHOU website achievements
  • Its many resources shared for free with the Webflow community
  • His youtube channel

We already told you about them a few months ago. Finsweet has releaseda universal development method to democratize development languages in webflow: Client-First. This method proposes to name the classes in a clear and understandable way by all. The objective is to improve the accessibility of webflow sites by the largest number of users. (CSS naming convention)

And here again... no-code news!

Their new product, Attributes, is a 100% no-code solution that unlocks many features in Webflow.

We have tested it and we are now convinced. Attributes are a practical solution to improve the functionality and accessibility (CMS) of your Webflow sites. Nocode and "open source" we use Finsweet attributes at Digidop for several purposes:

  • CMS filter attributes: free alternative to Jetboost for filtering your collections
  • CMS Load more : to easily improve the loading time of your pages with many items
  • CMS slider : to have sliders 100% powered by a Webflow collection

How can you use the attributes of Finsweet for your business? There are several resources to help you learn how to use them.

Learning to use attributes

Adding the attributes to your Webflow site is accessible without technical knowledge. The code is already written and you just need to copy/paste links from the Finsweet Atributes website content to the custom code of your Webflow project.

To learn how to use them you can also choose different formats:

Live youtube video

English: If you speak English, Finsweet has released many videos of attribute creation and implementation in live Webflow projects.

French : At Digidop, we have made a first Youtube video (about the filtering system), others will follow 🍿

Blog/tutorial content

The CMS site attribute by Finsweet has a clear UX and step-by-step guided tutorials to make attributes work on your Webflow projects. The only drawback is that the content is in English.

Finsweet attributes are a simple solution to integrate into your webflow sites to add functionality to the list collections (CMS).
