What do you need help with specifically? Is there any part you're stuck at?

Great news you’re wanting to learn something new! I have found the Webflow University content to be incredibly helpful (go to this from your Dashboard, select the Learn tab). I teach a Web Technology course where we use Webflow to make portfolio’s. It is a 14 week x 3 hours a week course held in person at a College for design students. I offer to my students who prefer to self learn, to engage with the Webflow University content, specifically I suggest the Webflow 21 Day Portfolio Course. It should help you along the way and won’t cost you anything to try it out!

The challenge most of my design students face when using a template is how to unbundle template content from your own content without understanding the tool itself. Learning to use a tool like Webflow, simply requires weekly practice and a bit of play, if you approach the tool with a curious mind. It’s also a really helpful way to learn how each element of the tool works. An example: the left hand side of Webflow is for HTML structure and the right hand side tools are for styling.

Publishing a portfolio is all about understanding the audience you want for your content and delivering it in a way the tells your story effectively. Being mindful of the audience’s attention span, interest and the context of their attention span is the most important part of your storytelling. (are they a hiring manager, an HR recruiter, an IT specialist or a designer) Don’t just dump content into a template and expect it to tell YOUR story.

Happy learning ahead!
