I hate Webflow and custom code

It's true - I really really hate how poorly Webflow handles custom code.

No validation. No autocomplete. And constant republishing.

To fix it I built anchors.dev - now anyone can code in their IDE and push it to a Webflow site in 1/10th of the time.

Not only is it quicker, and lets you code where coding is supposed to happen, but it gives you access to all the extra bells and whistles we're used to.

Segment your code into modules, use Typescript, and even import npm packages.

    Great job!

    I would suggest modifying your title. "I hate Webflow" isn't really true. You actually like Webflow and are seeking people who also like Webflow. To more accurately target them I'd say something like,

    "Solution: Frustrated with Webflow when using custom code".

    Good luck! I like what you are doing very much!

      You're right - I don't really hate Webflow, just how they handle custom code!

    Good landing page. Clean, concise and to the point.

      Thanks, I appreciate that!
