Custom code refers to the addition of custom programming, such as JavaScript, HTML, or CSS, to Webflow sites. This allows developers to extend the functionality and design beyond the limitations of Webflow’s visual interface, enabling more complex and unique features.
Custom code is essential for adding advanced functionalities and customizations to your Webflow projects. It allows you to implement features that are not natively supported by Webflow, ensuring your site meets specific requirements and stands out from competitors.
Adding custom code in Webflow can be done in various ways. You can include code snippets in the site-wide custom code settings, embed code within individual pages, or use the HTML embed element to add code directly into the design. This flexibility allows you to customize your site at different levels.
Using Wized, you can integrate custom code to fetch and display dynamic data from external APIs, including Xano. This integration enables you to create highly interactive and data-driven applications. For example, you can use custom JavaScript to call Xano endpoints and dynamically update content on your Webflow site.
When writing custom code, ensure it is clean, well-documented, and optimized for performance. Avoid duplicating code by using reusable functions and components. Test your code thoroughly across different browsers and devices to ensure compatibility. Additionally, keep security in mind by validating and sanitizing inputs to prevent vulnerabilities.
