To make your website fit 100% of the screen on different devices in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Set your website to a 100% width: Go to the Body Tag in the Navigator (on the left side of the Designer), and make sure the width property is set to 100%. This ensures that your website takes up the full width of the screen.

  2. Use "VH" units: When setting the height of your elements, use viewport height (VH) units instead of pixels. VH units represent a percentage of the height of the viewport, which means your elements will adjust dynamically based on the screen size.

  3. Avoid fixed heights or widths: Avoid setting fixed heights or widths for your elements whenever possible. Instead, use the default "auto" value, which allows the element to adjust its size based on its content and the screen size.

  4. Use responsiveness settings: Webflow's responsive settings allow you to control how your elements behave on different devices. Select the element you want to adjust, go to the Settings panel (on the right side of the Designer), and click on the responsive icon to open the responsive settings. From there, you can adjust the size, position, and visibility of the element based on different screen sizes.

  5. Test your designs on different devices: Use the preview mode in Webflow to test how your website looks on different devices. This will allow you to identify any issues and make adjustments accordingly.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your website fits 100% of the screen on different devices in Webflow. Taking a mobile-first approach and testing your designs on multiple devices will help you create a responsive website that provides a seamless user experience.
