Technical Considerations: Transferring Webflow Projects and Relume Templates to Webstudio

At a glance

The post asks if it is possible to copy a Webflow project or Relume templates into Webstudio. The community members discuss that a complete project migration from Webflow to Webstudio is unlikely to work due to differences in features like CMS and animations. However, they mention that copying components may be possible at a later stage, but currently there are limitations like the lack of a grid system used in Relume.

The community members suggest that there will be a path for migration from Webflow to Webstudio, such as migrating the CMS to a different CMS and copying most components, but a simple one-click migration is very difficult to achieve. They also discuss using Azure SQL for data and OAuth, designing in Webstudio, and developing in Visual Studio or VSCode with Typescript. The community members recommend exploring the CIQ library from the Webstudio marketplace and using a service like Supabase or the Azure SQL HTTP API for the database integration.

copying complete project from webflow is unlikely gonna work, too many things are not the same, e.g. cms, animations
copying components will work at a later stage, currently we are missing grid, which is used a lot in relume, which is why even if add copy right now, you won't be able to copy all of them
as of today, both questions are a no
there will be a path for migratino from webflow to webstudio to some degree, e.g. migrate CMS to different CMS, copy most of the components from weblow etc
but super simple migration in one click is very hard to achieve.
so i am actually looking at your lifetime tier (at least 1). but i need the relume copy (components not project is fine). also i have an existing webflow I do not want to redo. i like the 1M page views and multiple sites. but i will be using azure SQL for data and OAuth. i would be designing in Webstudio, developing in either Visual Studio or VSCode and typescript. currently, i am as fast with the VSCode than i am with webflow but i am just learning (about a week and a half). but the hosting of all this is a bit challenging.
when do you anticipate 'later stage' will occur. as i said my workflow is using sql server so thousands of data items which will probably not work for CMS
I'm just a user but AFAIK, the cms functionality is imminent. I'm under the impression that it will be in the next few weeks
@anarchitect have you tried using CIQ library from webstudio marketplace?
@John Ope from CIQ Libraries is working on the free verrsion as well as on a more advanced pro version, maybe you guys can collaborate, I am sure John can add any section component you may need
This is ultimately a faster path towards migration right now
in regards of database, as you already know we are agnostic, so you can fetch your data from any data base as long as it has an http api
for example supabase has automatically a rest api for all the data
very recommended, pricing is also great
