Features Part I: Slideshow & Grid

Creating Interactive Feature Sections in Webflow

In this tutorial, I walk you through the process of designing an interactive feature section using Webflow.

We focus on replicating a visual grid layout initially created in Figma, with a set of cards for movies, games, and watch parties. This guide details how to implement these designs into a functional, animated slider in Webflow. By following this tutorial, you will learn how to create a dynamic feature section in Webflow that includes interactive elements such as sliders and grids. We start by inserting a slider component and customizing its properties to match our design. You'll also learn how to structure and align your content within the slider, create a responsive grid layout, and manage spacing and alignment to achieve a polished look. This step-by-step process ensures that your feature section is both visually appealing and functional.
