Advice on how to proceed w/Webstudio

Hi there! My name is Saif, I'm I'm attempting to create a projects-based volunteering organization to help improve the disability-standards at my educational institution.

Recently, as a push to try and get more help from other professionals that I know, I created an interactive digital pamphlet in Canva to try and help explain our situation in a simple and easy-to-understand format, as seen here:

https://wat-dahell.my.canva.site/able-alliance-revamp-interactive-pamphlet

That all being said, I've been looking at the site and seeing how it's literally just a series of different images connected to one another w/invisible buttons casted over pngs, I wanted to migrate it over to something actually designed to run a website. I only get one shot at convincing people to help us, and the more interactive/impressive it is, the better our chance of helping more disabled students in the long-run at our school.

I just spent the last 3 hours trying to re-create this canva site on Webstudio, but because I'm so new to the platform I couldn't even figure out how to center an image, let alone make it clickable. I've become a little bit spoiled w/drag-and-drop elements and designers like Figma and Canva, so I was lost on what to do even after consulting the AI, watching video tutorials, etc.

For context, I am very... very... VERY new to website building, with all of my prior experience being low-level blogs and other sites made in squarespace, wix and most recently Figma. I've coded before in the past, but I am... not the best with it.

I just wanted to ask here how difficult it would be to re-create this Canva site on Webstudio with my extremely limited experience. I don't have much time and have difficulty concentrating due to chronic pain, so doing the tutorials will take time that I don't have. To be clear, I want to learn how to use the site later on, but for my current purposes of making a quick and on-the-go type of product, is Webstudio the best way to go?

Hey Saif,

What you’re trying to do is absolutely possible — turning that Canva pamphlet into a simple, interactive website is 100% doable, even with limited experience.

Webstudio is a solid platform, and they do have great beginner-friendly videos on YouTube like this one:

That said, since time and energy are limited for you right now, I’d be happy to support you more directly. If you want, I can help you build a clean and accessible website that fits your needs and gets your message across effectively. Just message me directly and we can work something out — no pressure at all.

What you're doing is really meaningful, and I’d love to contribute if I can.

Best regards,
Yannick
