How to Use Vanilla JavaScript or Lightweight Frameworks on Webflow
Using Vanilla JavaScript or lightweight frameworks is important for optimizing your website’s performance. Lightweight solutions reduce the amount of code that needs to be loaded and executed, which can lead to faster page loads and improved user experience.
How to do it on Webflow?
- Global: This applies to your JavaScript site-wide. It’s typically added in the Project Settings under the “Custom Code” tab and runs on all pages.
- Page-specific: This JavaScript is added to individual pages. You can input code in the “Custom Code” section of each page’s settings, which only affects that specific page.
- Custom Elements: This is for adding JavaScript directly to specific elements using the “Embed” component. This allows for more targeted, element-specific scripts.
Each area allows you to target different scopes of your website, from global functionality to very specific customizations.
