Webflow sync, pageviews & more.
NEW

Has Webflow been integrated with Github or gitlab for collaboration with developers on code?

TL;DR
  • Webflow lacks native GitHub/GitLab integration, so developers must manually export static code (HTML, CSS, JS) and push it to a Git repository.
  • No dynamic backend or design files are exported; version control must be handled outside Webflow using manual workflows or API-based CMS syncing.

Webflow does not have direct integration with GitHub or GitLab, meaning you cannot natively sync Webflow projects with remote git repositories for version control or collaborative coding workflows.

1. Webflow’s Code Access Limitations

  • Webflow exports static code (HTML, CSS, JS) that can be manually uploaded to GitHub or GitLab.
  • No backend code access or dynamic CMS logic is exported—only front-end assets.
  • No git versioning of internal design files is supported within the Webflow platform.

2. Current Export Workflow for Developers

  • Use the Export Code button (available only on paid plans) to download static files, then manually push them to a Git repository.
  • Changes in Webflow do not auto-sync with any remote repository; developers must repeatedly export and update the repo.

3. Workarounds and Options

  • Use manual syncing—a Webflow designer exports code, which a developer integrates into a git-managed workflow for enhancements or additional programming.
  • For version control over generated code, some teams:
  • Set up a GitHub Actions workflow that runs custom build scripts using exported code.
  • Use tools like Udesly or Wized for web app logic, though they don’t replace GitHub-style collaboration.

4. Custom API-Based Approaches (Workarounds)

  • A developer could build a custom sync tool using the Webflow CMS API to pull/push CMS content to/from repositories.
  • Webflow does not offer an API to pull/export full site HTML code, so API-based git integration is limited to CMS content—not design or layout code.

Summary

Webflow is not directly integrated with GitHub or GitLab for code collaboration. Only manual exports and git repository updates are currently possible. For full version control or collaborative coding, developers must manage exported assets separately outside of Webflow.
