I'm still learning HTML and CSS and don't consider myself a web developer yet. I'm wondering whether Webflow is a good tool for creating real websites, and whether there are any recommendations or things I should understand before relying on it.

Yes, Webflow can be a solid choice, especially for content-focused marketing sites. It gives you a lot of visual control, but that also means it’s possible to create awkward layouts or inconsistent designs if you don’t understand the underlying HTML and CSS. It can also add extra code that affects page speed, so keep an eye on performance.
It can definitely get the job done. My main recommendation is to learn basic HTML, CSS, responsive design, and accessibility alongside Webflow. That knowledge will make the tool much easier to use and help you troubleshoot when the visual controls don’t behave as expected.
That makes sense. I’ll keep learning the fundamentals instead of treating the visual editor as a replacement for HTML and CSS.
