In this episode, Ian and Yar break down the frameworks that shape modern Webflow builds: Client First, Lumos, and beyond.

They discuss what frameworks actually do, why naming conventions matter, and how these systems impact scalability, accessibility, SEO, and developer collaboration.

You’ll hear real-world stories of Lumos updates disrupting projects, why Client First remains the industry’s “safe bet,” and how agencies balance advanced features with long-term maintainability.

The episode also dives into the upcoming Webflow Conference, predictions for AI-driven features, and what the presence of Seth Godin might signal for marketing and SEO updates.
