To properly host the code for your custom calculator in Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Prepare your custom calculator code: Before hosting the code, make sure you have the complete code for your custom calculator. This may include HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files, along with any necessary dependencies.

  2. Create a new page in Webflow: In your Webflow project, create a new page where you want to host your custom calculator. You can create a blank page or choose a template that suits your needs.

  3. Access the Custom Code panel: Once you're on the page where you want to host the calculator, go to the Designer panel on the left side of the Webflow editor. Click on the "Settings" tab at the bottom of the panel, and then click on the "Custom Code" tab.

  4. Insert the HTML code: In the Custom Code panel, find the "Head Code" or "Body Code" sections (depending on where you want to insert the calculator). Paste the HTML code for your custom calculator in the appropriate section.

  5. Insert the CSS code: If your custom calculator requires any custom styling, find the "Head Code" section in the Custom Code panel and paste your CSS code there. This will ensure that the styles are applied to your calculator.

  6. Insert the JavaScript code: If your custom calculator utilizes JavaScript, find the "Footer Code" section in the Custom Code panel and insert your JavaScript code there. Placing it in the footer ensures that the JavaScript will be loaded after the page's content.

  7. Publish your site: Once you have inserted the code for your custom calculator, click on the Publish button in the top-right corner of the Webflow editor. This will make your calculator accessible to visitors.

After following these steps, your custom calculator should be properly hosted in Webflow. Visitors to your site will be able to use the calculator as intended. Remember to test your calculator thoroughly to ensure it functions correctly on your live site.
