To create a home page in Webflow that is the exact size of the screen with no scrolling, a responsive background element, and a transparent navbar, follow these steps:

  1. Create a new page: In the Webflow Designer, create a new page for your home page by clicking on the "+" button in the Pages pane on the left side of the screen. Choose the "Blank" option to start from scratch.

  2. Set the page size: Select the newly created page by clicking on it in the Pages pane. In the Settings tab on the right side of the Designer, set the page size to "100VH" and "100VW". This will make the page fill the entire viewport.

  3. Add a section: Click on the "+" button in the top-left corner of the Designer to add a section to your page. By default, the section will fill the entire page.

  4. Customize the section: With the section selected, you can customize its background by clicking on the Background tab in the Style panel on the right side of the Designer. Choose a responsive image or color for the background. You can also adjust other settings like padding and margins to control the content placement within the section.

  5. Create a transparent navbar: To create a transparent navbar, add a new div block element inside the section. Style the div block as a navbar by giving it a fixed position and setting its background color to transparent. You can then add your navigation content such as links or a logo within this div block.

  6. Add content: Finally, you can now add your desired content, like text, images, or other elements, inside the section. Position and style them as needed.

  7. Preview and publish: Use Webflow's Preview mode to see how your home page looks and functions. Once you're satisfied, publish the site to make it live on the web.

By following these steps, you will have a home page in Webflow that is the exact size of the screen, with a responsive background element, and a transparent navbar.
