Webflow GSAP UI: Power, Limitations, and Custom Slider Mastery

In this episode, Yar and Daniel dive deep into Webflow’s new GSAP UI, exploring its capabilities, limitations, and how it changes animation workflows for developers. They share insights on where the native tool excels, when to fall back on custom code, and how to blend both approaches for advanced results.

You’ll hear real-world feedback on breakpoints, performance considerations, and dynamic CMS integration. Plus, Daniel breaks down the anatomy of a complex, multi-layered custom slider built for the Pencil project—showcasing why custom solutions still matter in 2025.
