To start the mobile part of your Webflow site from scratch and use the default settings provided by Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Login to your Webflow account and open your project.

  2. In the Designer, click on the "Mobile Portrait" icon at the top of the canvas. This will switch the view to the mobile layout.

  3. By default, Webflow automatically copies all the styles from the desktop version to the mobile layout. However, if you want to start from scratch, you can remove all the existing styles by selecting the elements you want to reset and clicking the "Clear Styles" button in the Style panel.

  4. To apply styles to the mobile layout, use the Style panel just like you would for the desktop layout. You can customize the layout, typography, colors, and any other style properties specific to the mobile version.

  5. Remember to preview your changes in the mobile view to ensure they look good on different screen sizes.

  6. If needed, you can also add or modify elements specifically for the mobile layout. You can switch to the "Mobile Landscape" or "Tablet Portrait" views to make adjustments for those screen sizes as well.

  7. Webflow automatically applies the styles from the mobile layout to smaller breakpoints, such as tablets and smaller screens. However, you can further customize these breakpoints if desired.

  8. Once you're done designing the mobile part of your site, make sure to check the interactions and animations to ensure they work well on mobile devices.

  9. Finally, publish your site to see the mobile version live.

By following these steps, you can start the mobile part of your Webflow site from scratch while using the default settings provided by Webflow.
