Hey there, Webflow CTO here. We take performance seriously here so I'm secretly in glee to see users notice this. It's a similar stack we use for Webflow hosting: https://webflow.com/hosting https://webflow.com/hosting
A few things on this page that make this site fast:
- Responsive Images created for you as your build your site (https://webflow.com/feature/responsive-images https://webflow.com/feature/responsive-images)
- HTTP2 wherever possible
- Fastly for initial HTML document for sub 10ms TTFB, depending on your location - their instant purge makes it possible for our users to see their updated sites super quickly
- AWS Cloudfront for static, scripts, and media assets
- biocomputation 9y agoNeat tool - and a lot of hard, careful work no doubt. In one of your articles, you say that your product isn't a 'grandma web site builder' or something to that effect. Any chance you could, in the future, perhaps use different language? Maybe something a little less derogatory to older folks? I totally get that it wasn't your intent!
- brryant 9y agoYea, when I said it verbally on the Skype call with Matt (the reporter) it definitely conveyed much more of a satirical tone, but in hindsight, I realized that was a mistake. My 奶奶 definitely would have scolded me for that. Sorry 奶奶...
