To get your Codepen animation to work in Webflow Particle Swarm, you can follow these steps:
- Export your animation code from Codepen:
- Open your Codepen animation and locate the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code that make up your animation.
- Copy the relevant portions of code.
- Create a new Webflow project or open an existing one:
- Log in to your Webflow account and create a new project or open the project in which you want to add the Codepen animation.
- Create a new HTML Embed element in Webflow:
- Drag and drop an HTML Embed element onto the canvas where you want the animation to appear.
- Double click the HTML Embed element to open the code editor.
- Paste the HTML code from Codepen:
- Paste the HTML code that you copied from Codepen into the code editor of the HTML Embed element in Webflow.
- Reference any necessary CSS and JavaScript files:
- If your animation requires external CSS or JavaScript files, you will need to include those files in your Webflow project.
- Upload the CSS and JavaScript files to your Webflow project's assets or host them externally.
- Update the file references in the code you pasted into the HTML Embed element to point to the correct file locations.
- Apply the necessary styles and positioning:
- Use the Webflow Style panel to apply any necessary styles to the HTML Embed element.
- Adjust the positioning and dimensions of the HTML Embed element to ensure the animation appears correctly on your website.
- Publish or preview your website:
- Once you have completed the above steps, you can either publish your website to make the animation live or use the preview option to see how it looks.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully integrate your Codepen animation into Webflow Particle Swarm.
