Getting Started with Webflow Apps

Webflow Apps give developers the power to extend Webflow’s capabilities, making it easier for Visual Designers and Marketing teams to streamline workflows and achieve better results.

App capabilities

Connect Webflow to your backend

Build backend integrations that operate outside of the Webflow Designer to sync data between Webflow and other platforms. Connect your CMS to an external database, send form submissions to a CRM, or automate content publishing.

Build a Data Client

Extend the Webflow Designer

Create tools that run directly inside the Webflow Designer. Add new panels, automate design tasks, or embed content from other services to enhance your design workflow without leaving Webflow.

Build a Designer Extension

Combine data and designer operations

Bring both data and designer operations together to create a comprehensive solution for users, that supports both backend operations and designer workflows
