Now, I'd heard about Webflow a number of years ago and how it makes building sites very approachable, and while I did try my hand at it, I have to admit, it still felt overwhelming to put something respectable together. This year, I decided to change that and threw myself at Webflow. I wanted to build something I could be proud of.
After many false starts, I managed to put this silly landing page together (inspired by the Potato Landing Page https://dribbble.com/shots/2042501-Potato-landing-page). I wanted to learn Webflow while also seeing how far I could take it AND make sure to not get overwhelmed again. So I spent a few hours a week for a couple of weeks, first learning some basic Webflow skills, and then following along some tutorials. All in all, I'd say I put around 25 hours into this.
In retrospect, the biggest barrier to my seeing this project through was my own head. It looks super daunting when you're on the lower end of a steep learning curve, then you get on and realize the curve isn't scary steep, and then you're on the other side and thinking "gee, why didn't I push myself sooner?"
Anyway, hope you like it! It's still a little janky in parts and I'm not a big fan of scroll jacking (again, just testing and learning the limits), and it totally crumbles on mobile (for now), but I'm happy to get it out there so I can move onto other things now. Thanks!
