The Refinements

Practical refinements to meet our needs.

On top of client-first, we introduce a small set of additional classes, variables and practices to better support our needs.

Columns & Rows

To make layout control faster, more explicit & reusable, we leverage gap spacing using dedicated spacing classes for columns and rows.

Sections

To simplify layouts, we merge padding-global + padding classes into the traditional section class.

Expanded Scale

For a clearer scale and additional room to expand, we replace semantic names like huge & gigantic with t-shirt sizing such as 2X Large, 3X Large etc.

Core System Features

Key system features to build better, faster

For complete information, we recommend reading Client First and Webflow Way official documentation.

Simple Page Structure

Each component begins with a section and a container to  ensure content is consistently spaced, aligned and centered.

Modern Spacing

No more margin-stacking or messy spacing classes. We rely on native flexbox gap along with row/column utilities for clean, consistent spacing across all breakpoints.

Global Elements

Common elements like typography, buttons, icons are reused across a project and are modified with combo-classes.

Powerful Variables

Variables for colors, structure and more are used to make global changes across your project quicker and easier.

Organised Class Naming

Class names go from general to specific, with a clear strategy for easy identification and management.

Accessible Sizing

Elements are styled using the rem unit. This provides greater accessibility for website visitors.
