Rebuild from scratch with Webstudio ?

At a glance

The community members are discussing the transition of the OP's website from Typedream to Webstudio. Some suggestions include rebuilding the site from scratch on Webstudio, using tools like HTFlow to accelerate the migration, and being cautious of the original site's HTML structure to avoid copying any unnecessary complexity. The community members also note that Webstudio supports pasting Markdown, but the original site builder may not provide that functionality. Overall, the community members provide various approaches to consider for the transition, but there is no explicitly marked answer.

Useful resources
Hi,

Typedream has been sold, it's an opportunity for me to change builder and rebuild my site on Webstudio.
My site: https://lncp.fr
How do you recommend going about it? Rebuild from scratch or are there tools that can make the transition easier?

Rebuilding it. Webstudio supports pasting in Markdown, but I doubt the source website builder is providing that. Just in general start by creating a style guide though
don't you believe to this type of service ? https://htflow.com
and then copy paste from webflow to webstudio
I guess there would be some work but could accelerate the migration
seems like it's worth a try. One caution is that if the original site has an overly complex or cluttered html structure (like unnecessary extra nested divs), you'd be copying that cluttered structure.

I'd aim instead for using browser developer tools (or typedream if it allows you) to examine the structure and components, and rebuild from scratch using webstudio elements and components.

There isn't native javascript animation yet, although you can do css transitions for some animation. I would save animation for last and then see what resources are available in webstudio at that time
