Watch me build a website using Webflow in 1 hour (follow along)

so if you're new to webflow this 
tutorial is designed for you   we're gonna go step by step uh starting from 
a blank page uh to building a completely fully   functioning recipe blog and let me quickly show 
you what the final product is gonna look like and   you're going to have a home page here which is 
going to list out the different recipes that are   in the back end of your webflow site and you're 
going to be able to click into the specific recipe   and see the photo and see information that you're 
storing about that recipe like ingredients and   then the uh description of how to actually 
uh make the recipe and then you're gonna   have a navbar here to go back to the home page 
and we're also gonna build in these filtering   pages here so you can click on a specific 
cuisine of food and see the recipes that   fit within that specific cuisine so this tutorial 
is for complete beginners so even if you have   no flow experience at all or no web design 
experience you've never built a website   we're going to go step by step i'm going to show 
you exactly how to do it so don't be intimidated   and by the end you're going to know how to use 
webflow and how to build a site like this on your   own so i hope you enjoy the tutorial so what you 
need to do is first create a webflow account and   it's going to put you into the dashboard yours is 
going to be empty and then go ahead and click new   project on the top right and then once you click 
new project go ahead and click blank site we're   not going to use a template in our case because 
i want to teach you the fundamentals of web flow   from a blank site and then you can always use 
that knowledge on a template later on so i'm   just going to name my project recipe site you can 
name your project something similar if you'd like and that's going to drop you into the web 
flow designer and the designer might seem a   little bit overwhelming at first with all of the 
different settings and buttons but i'm going to   walk you through what you need to know to build 
the website so the first thing that i want to do   is go ahead to the top left here to this add 
element button and this is where all of the   different web flow components are held and what 
we're going to do is click on section and that's   going to drop a section into the body now if you 
have built a website with css and html in the past   this is going to seem familiar and it might be 
a little bit easier for you to pick up webflow   but even if you haven't used css or html 
in the past i'm going to walk you through   what you need to know so no worries if you have 
no experience with that webflow basically is a   visual designer of css and html code in fact if 
you wanted to actually export your website once   you are finished you can export the code and 
host that code somewhere else so webflow is   essentially letting you use its tools to visually 
visually code essentially so in html and css   you're building using the box model and what a box 
model means is everything you put on your website   is boxes within boxes and we're going to use our 
styling to make our boxes you know say and look   what we want how we want them to and they're going 
to be placed on the website how we want them to   you'll see what i mean as i keep going um so 
first we have this section here at the top   and this is where we're going to design our main 
header so within this section let's go ahead and   add a heading and a heading is just like it seems 
it is um you know big text on your website that's   going to be a heading for a section and let's give 
this h1 h1 through 6 is the size of the heading   and now let's go ahead and add another heading 
let's drag that right underneath and you can see   it's at the same indentation here right underneath 
the section which is exactly what we want   and we're going to go ahead and click h3 in 
this case which is going to be our subheading   and here let's just rename or edit the 
text here and let's just call it my   recipe blog and then under heading um the 
best recipes um for you to cook at home   perfect so we're not going to worry too much about 
the content here it's mostly about the design   and understanding how webflow works so now 
that we've created this structure of a section   with a heading two headings within that section 
let's go over to the styling here on the right   side and what we're going to do is go ahead and 
add a class and we're going to name the class   section the reason classes are helpful in web flow 
is once you create the styling of this class we   can name other sections that same section class 
and they're going to automatically take on the   same styling which is going to be really helpful 
um for a lot of things in webflow that we create   we're going to go ahead and add this section we're 
going to give it some padding now padding is space   inside so here if we hover you can see it's inside 
the box that those green lines are inside the   section box that we just created and i'm going to 
take that away and if i add margin you can see if   we hover over that the blue lines are outside the 
box so that's the difference between margin and   padding so i'm going to go ahead and remove 
that real quick so in our case what i want to do   is add some padding so let's go ahead and i'm 
going to hold option this is a little trick in   webflow if you hold option and and drag it's going 
to automatically add the same padding on the left   and right or the top and bottom depending on which 
side you're on and if you hold shift it's going to   automatically add padding all the way around and 
we go ahead and remove that um so shift is on all   four sides option or i believe it's alt on a pc is 
going to be the top and the bottom so i'm going to   go ahead and add 50 pixels of padding on the top 
on the left and right i'm going to go ahead and add why don't i say 60 on the top and bottom 
and this is going to be our section and then   um what i'm going to do is go ahead and add 
um a combo class and uh i'm going to add pop   and what a combo class does is it allows us 
to add additional styling to our first class   without editing that first class so if we add um 
a background color here which is what i'm going   to do go down to the bottom here with background 
under color why don't i give this like a yellow   background that's a hex code hex codes 
are essentially codes that represent   the color that you're using on your website and 
that is going to be a part of that top combo   class so if i create another section later on and 
it doesn't have that um that top combo class it's   going to have the same padding with no background 
if i add top it's going to add in that yellow   background or any other styling changes that we 
want to change like on the top if we want to add   you know 200 padding and make it really long 
we can do that i'm gonna hit um undo to do that   you can undo anything or redo things in webflow 
using either the keyboard shortcut so command z   or you can use uh these buttons here to 
redo and undo if you make any mistakes   okay great so you're starting to understand 
kind of how to start adding content to   your website's home page now what i want to 
do is actually add websites to the backend   database of our webflow site and we're going to 
do this by using the content management system or   the webflow cms which is where we're going to hold 
all of our data and that's going to be dynamically   displayed on our website and the way we do that is 
we go to the left bar here to this cms button so   we're going to click cms and we're going to create 
our first collection and go ahead and press that   and we're going to use one of webflow's collection 
templates in this tutorial so go ahead and click   recipes and webflow is going to automatically pull 
in some custom fields that are going to be helpful   for our recipe and we can always edit these 
later but for now this is going to be great   for start so here we have the name of the recipe 
we have an ingredients area we have a directions   area we have uh recipe history that might be kind 
of some background information about the recipe   we have the main image we have the thumbnail 
image whether it's a featured recipe or not and   we have color color is something to edit like the 
color of the buttons or the text if you wanted to   i'm actually going to go ahead 
and delete that to delete   what you want to do is go hit that settings and 
then just hit that trash can right there perfect   so here let's go ahead and create the 
collection and we might add some more fields   later on but for now let's go ahead and create the 
collection we have zero recipes in our collection   let's go ahead and add a new recipe so go ahead to 
the top right and let's go ahead and add a recipe   so what i'm going to do is go find a recipe online 
and we're going to use that as kind of a template   so that way we have some content to put in 
all right so i'm getting a pesto recipe from   bonapite.com and i'm going to go ahead and enter 
in the name it's going to be called best pesto and   let's go ahead and add in the ingredients and 
this is a rich text field and what that means   is you can format your text directly in this field 
so you can add a plus button you can add images   you can add bullet points which is what i'm going 
to do here and i'm going to go ahead and add in   the recipe ingredients so half a cup of pine nuts 
it's three ounce parmesan two garlic cloves six   six cups of basil three fourth cup extra virgin 
olive oil and sure so that that's the ingredients   section um for directions i'm just going to 
go ahead and copy and paste in the directions   from boneapetit.com and i'm going to go 
ahead and paste that in and here you can see   because it's a rich text field if you highlight 
over text you can see this is a heading 4.   and you can change the sizes if you'd like 
as well so this is a heading 4.

Perfect for recipe history i'm just going to leave that 
blank for now i think we're going to go back and   delete that in our case we're just going to 
remove the recipe history we can always you   could always add that back yourself if you'd 
want later under main image let's go ahead   and download an image of pesto and what i would 
recommend is let's just go to unsplash.com   and they probably have some pictures here perfect 
so i'm going to go ahead and download that and let's go back to webflow and i'm just 
going to drag in our main image and i'm going   to use the same image for the main image as the 
thumbnail image perfect and we're just going to   leave that unchecked for now so i'm going to go 
ahead and and create that and then like i said   let's edit and remove that recipe history field 
so let's edit that settings here under recipes   um and then let's go ahead and under recipe 
history hit that um settings and trash can and   delete the recipe history perfect so let's save 
the collection and let's go ahead and add a few   more recipes so what i would recommend on your own 
is go to a recipe website find a few recipes and   go ahead and edit in the enter in the information 
so you have some content to work with so i'm going   to go to bonapite.com and add in a few more 
recipes here one other thing i would recommend   is maybe add in um a couple different cuisines so 
in my case i'll i'll do a couple italian recipes   and then maybe a couple recipes of another cuisine 
um that's going to be helpful when we add in our   cuisine type later on which is something we're 
going to add to our recipe site so go ahead and   do that i'm going to pause the video and do that 
myself as well all right so i've gone ahead and   added four total recipes i've added two italian 
into thai recipes and uh let's go back to our   home page and now what we're gonna do is add 
a element here on the top left and it's going   to be a collection list and this is kind of the 
magic of webflow so we're going to drag that in   and the source is going to be our recipe 
collection and you can see it's already pulling in   those uh recipes that we've added and then within 
that let's go ahead and pull in an image block   and let's just make sure that's dragged into 
that collection item you can see you can see   it's automatically pulling in four images because 
it's going to be styling each collection item the   exact same way so we're going to get that 
image from recipes and that's going to be   our thumbnail image and wow you can see um 
it's not styled so it's just pulling it in   um full size actually looks kind of cool 
but um we're going to style that a little   bit so we have the image and let's 
also go ahead and pull in a heading   drag that below the image and why don't we 
do an h3 and the text is going to be the name   perfect and then let's go to the collection list 
and what we're going to do so the collection list   is what's holding in all each item and we're going 
to give that a display of grid and as you can see   a grid is a really great display that's going 
to automatically um if we just hit done it it's   a 2×2 right here and i think that's actually not 
that bad so let's go ahead and keep it at a 2×2   and what i want to do is make sure that 
all of the images are the same size so   what i'm going to do is a little trick here 
so instead of actually having an image block   i'm going to pull in a div a div is essentially 
a box in html and i'm going to give that div a   background image which is going to be this image 
so i'm just going to go ahead and first pull in   a link block the reason we want this to be a link 
block is because we want to link to this specific   recipe so the link block is going to be here um 
in the collection item and then within that link   block we want to pull in a div and just kind 
of hover over and you can see we're pulling it   underneath that link block and now that we're 
on this div go to your settings make sure you're   hovered over this div go to click get background 
image from recipes we're going to select field and   make it a thumbnail image perfect and now let's 
go back to our um paint brush here our style   and we're going to edit the width so 
first let's just make this 400 pixels by   200 pixels so right off the bat we're 
creating um the size of these images   and then go down to our backgrounds and what 
we're going to do is hit this plus button and   uh we don't have to actually add an image 
because we were already pulling it in from our   cms so you can ignore that but let's go ahead 
and click cover and what cover is going to do   is as you can see it's going to make the image 
basically fill up the whole background and   then what i want to do is position it in the 
center and the reason i want to do this is   as you can see um it's making the image centered 
on the center center of the image and what that's   doing you can compare what we had to what we have 
now so here for example we have this really tall   image now we have this image that's all the same 
size as the others and it's centered on the middle   of the image so let's go ahead and click on that 
image that we had before and let's just delete it   so now we have this div block which is really the 
image so let's click on that right arrow on the   class on the right side and click rename class 
and what we're going to do is rename this to   food thumbnail perfect and then let's go to 
its sizing and let's change the width to uh i was going to do 100 but that didn't work 
let's just change it to 500 pixels by 300 pixels   and then on this link block   let's go ahead and drag in that heading underneath 
that image so the heading is all in that   link block and in the link block uh let's go 
ahead and remove that in the typography we   want to remove the text decoration and then make 
the color black so it's not that blue underline and then within the link block let's go ahead 
and give that a display of flex and this is going   to allow us to kind of easily position the items 
in the box the way that we want to so flux and   grid are both really helpful we're going to 
use flex here and we want this to be vertical   we want the alignment to be centered 
and that's all we want to do so here   we can see now everything is centered the way 
that we want it to be perfect and now we should   be able to go back to that food thumbnail and 
make the width a hundred percent and now it's   going to work the way that we want it to because 
it's within that flexbox you don't have to worry   too much about how for now but it works so this is 
going to give us that nice full width image here   so now we have our collection list wrapper and we 
have these link blocks with our recipes that we've   created and the great thing is as you add more 
recipes to your recipe site they're automatic   added they're automatically going to get 
added here in this collection list so   uh one thing i want to do now is go ahead and 
click that add element we're going to add a   section here and we're going to just make sure 
you drag it to the left so it's kind of within   that body here if you have trouble you can always 
drag it to the top and then kind of drag it back   but here we have this second section let's give 
it a class of section we don't want to give it   the class of top section we just want section and 
then let's go ahead and drag our collection list   wrapper within it so now the great thing about 
this is it's lined up um because it has the exact   same padding so it's automatically going to add 
in that padding and the cool thing is if we change   the padding there it's going to change it on the 
top as well maybe we'll add a little bit more   so this is nice it just gives some nice spacing next let's go to our link block here 
why don't we rename it to recipe   link recipe link group and then go to settings 
here and what we want to do is we're going to   choose where we want that link to go 
so in our pace we're going to click   collection page and we're going to choose the 
current recipe and what that's going to do is   allow us to click into a page that's going to 
hold the all the information about the recipe   and perfect so um what we can do now is where 
that is if we go to pages here on the left side   you can see we have our home page and then we 
have our recipes template now we need to go in   and actually create that page and edit the recipes 
template so that when you click on the recipe it's   going to put you into this recipe template page 
so let's quickly just add some information here   that we've created so let's add in a section 
let's go ahead and give it that section   title label and let's go ahead and add in a 
heading and then here let's get text from name   perfect so we have best pesto and 
let's go ahead and add in a div and let's go ahead and give this in our 
settings a background image the way that   we did before and we're going to do the 
main image here and we're going to do and let's go ahead and add a div and 
then let's put that heading in the div   and then what i want to do is go ahead and add 
another div and i'm going to just drag that   underneath so now we're going to have these two 
divs one with the heading and then one div here   and we're going to add an image i'm just going 
to drag that in and the image is going to be the   main main image here from our thumbnail perfect um 
so we have our uh name and we have the image here okay perfect and um we might not need these 
uh divs uh but we'll see how we decide to   kind of design it as we go so um and then 
in this item let's go ahead and just see   how this looks on others so perfect red 
pesto pasta and it might look a little   cleaner if you upload pictures that are in 
this kind of more horizontal aspect ratio   so here we go we have these um let's go ahead 
and add another section below let's uh whoops   um go ahead and add a section if you need to 
kind of drag it above and then drag it below   let's give this a section class so it's going 
to have all the same settings and let's go ahead   and drag in a rich text field and you need to 
drag in a rich text field you can't drag in a   you know normal heading or paragraph because the 
rich text block is we're getting text from our   directions or ingredients which are rich text 
cms fields so let's go ahead and pull ingredients   all right so next we're going to 
go ahead and add in another section and just drag that below and let's give this the 
same section class so it pulls in all the same   spacing in that section let's go ahead and 
give this a heading so i'm just going to click   on heading and that pulled it in underneath and 
let's double click on this and write ingredients whoops misspelled that and then let's go 
ahead and pull in a rich text field   and it has to be a rich text field not a normal 
paragraph field because the uh text in the cms   is a rich text field in the cms so 
we're going to pull in ingredients   you can see that's automatically pulled in 
we'll style this more later and then let's just   click duplicate that i clicked on that section i 
use my keyboard shortcut of command c if you're   on a pc i think it's ctrl c and command v or 
control v and that's going to duplicate it so then   let's just change this to directions and then here 
let's change that to directions perfect so we have   our uh rich text field we have our heading 
and we have our ingredients and our directions   perfect so you can see we have our home 
page and then we have our recipes template   perfect let's go back home let's go ahead and 
click publish so if we click click publish it's   going to publish this on our webflow url if you 
upgrade your plan you can add a custom domain   in webflow and webflow can host it let's go ahead 
and view our site so here we go this is our live   site and if we click on one of our links here it 
will take us to our recipe page so sweet spicy   cucumber salad and here we have our ingredients 
and here we have our directions and if we go back   we're back on the home page and we can click 
on another recipe um so even in our case here   we've already built out kind of the frame for a 
recipe blog so we have our home page and you can   click and you can browse different recipes 
so let's add a little bit more to our site   to make this just a little bit nicer and a little 
bit more built out all right so let's go back to   webflow and now i'm going to explain responsive 
design and this is something that webflow lets you   do really easily so responsive design is making 
sure that your website looks good no matter what   device the user is looking at so here you can see 
it looks good on the tablet size as we get to the   mobile landscape uh it still pretty much 
works and then as we get to our mobile   portrait our mobile phone um it's really 
not working anymore so it's kind of breaking   so what we're going to do to fix that 
it should be pretty simple so here   we're in our mobile landscape let's edit this 
first so let's click on a section and what's   happening i can tell is there's too much 
padding so it's not giving enough space   for our images here so all we have to do is 
go ahead and reduce the padding because we   don't need as much padding on a smaller screen 
size so here now it's working perfectly fine   um one thing that's really cool about 
webflow is if you make changes on a   smaller um device size it's going to automatically 
make the change on every size that's smaller than   that but if you go to larger sizes that's still 
going to keep the original design that you had   so here that helped it on the mobile but it's 
still not really working what we want is instead   of two images per row we actually want one so what 
we want to do is edit this grid so go to the right   side here just click edit grid make sure you're on 
that grid collection list and then in the columns   just go ahead and delete one of the columns 
and then hit done and now it's automatically   creating that one column design that we would be 
looking for here the other thing we want to do   is go into our recipe our recipe link and let's 
align to the left because in this case on one it's   just going to look better if we're aligning 
it to the left alright so i'm back on the   main desktop breakpoint and now what i'm going 
to do is show you how to edit the design of your   headings and headings is kind of a global style 
so this h1 h2 h3 h4 586 and you could just add a   class like heading or main heading if you wanted 
um but what we want to do is is if we click on   this heading one and we click on the class but 
don't name it and then go to all h1 headings   this way we can edit the style of the font 
and it's going to affect every place on our   site that we have h1 headings so let's go 
ahead and change the font and let's choose   to whichever font you want i'm going to go ahead 
and pick one uh why don't we do um let's see here let's do monsterat and i'm 
going to make the weight extra bold and i'm going to make the color 
black perfect and then let's go here to h3   and let's do the same thing 
click on all h3 headings   and let's change the font and here you 
can see because these uh fonts are also h3 you can see that it is 
also changing so one on h3   let's do uh lotto um or maybe in in consolata 
let's do that and then let's make this black   as well so we have this kind of different font um 
i'm just doing this for our use case here perfect   and then let's also change the margin on h3 let's 
make it 10 on the top and 5 on the bottom perfect you can also add more fonts you can add 
any google font in the uh project settings   of your webflow site but we're not going to 
do that right now perfect so we have uh this   um these fonts that were changed and then let's 
go to let's go to that recipe link and i know   we did this on mobile but i think we should 
do this on desktop as well let's go ahead and edit the alignment to the left you 
know this is just personal preference okay so now as we go here that's looking good on 
every uh device size perfect and let's check out   that cms collection page so here we can see uh 
that heading was automatically changed um and   then perfect that heading was changed as well so 
the next thing i want to do is let's edit the um   let's edit more of the um styles on our site uh 
so for example you can see uh this is a different   h um a different heading and it still has that um 
basic style and i'm gonna make that a little bit   more custom and then the paragraph here as well 
i want to make that a little bit more custom too   so in order to do that let's just go ahead and 
pull in a rich text field and let's just drag that   in and then if we click and click on this 
it's a heading 2 and we can click all h2   and we can give that the monserra and 
let's give that a black color as well   um let's do the same for this heading four make 
sure you just click rna and all h4 for this let's   give that the and you can see that's changing 
those steps over there because it's that same h4   let's do in consul in consolata which is what 
we did before and give it that black perfect   and then this is the paragraph let's click 
all paragraphs and why don't we give this   latte and let's make this black as well one other 
thing that i want to add is go ahead and click   that plus button here make sure you 
just click an empty space hit return   let's add a plus let's add bullets and 
let's just say test test test and this the list item let's go ahead and click all list 
items and let's change that to lotto as well   and let's give that a black color as well and 
that's going to edit those list items there   so this is just kind of how to style those 
global styles on your site like the heading   and the paragraphs and the list items 
i'm going to go ahead and delete that now   perfect all right awesome so cool so now we have 
some pretty good looking um kind of recipe pages   with our um image we have our ingredients and 
our directions and if we go to our home page we have a pretty good looking homepage so 
let's just edit this uh in this top section   let's just remove that image um why don't we just 
the background image let's just make it like a   really light gray here um cool so just that's 
a little bit cleaner so we just have this   light gray and then we have these images here so let's go ahead and click publish 
and by now if we go to our site   um we're going to have a pretty good 
looking recipe blog so we can click in   we have the image we have ingredients and we have 
directions the next thing i want to do is add a   nav bar here at the top so go ahead and click the 
plus button and let's go ahead and just pull in   this nav bar element component and this is just 
kind of a pre-made nav bar that webflow has for us   in that nav bar let's go ahead and click on 
that the background color of the nav bar and   let's just make that a dark gray and then in the 
brand let's go ahead and pull in our heading here   and let's give it a class of brand logo and 
then what i'm going to do is give it a white   color i'm going to re re-name it top recipes and 
then let's give it a different font which is kind   of more like a brand logo changa one perfect and 
then this nav menu i'm just going to delete for   now because we don't have any other pages we just 
have our logo here which we want to take us back   to our home page so in this brand what we want to 
do is click on that link hit the settings there   go to settings here we want the page we're going 
to choose a page and it's going to be the home   page perfect so now we have this nav bar what we 
want to do is create a symbol and we're going to   do that by clicking on the symbol here clicking 
create new symbol just click nav bar make sure   you're on the navbar when you do this and now 
we've created this symbol of the navbar so now   if we go back to our recipes template and we add 
oops we go to the symbols tab we can just drag   in the nav bar to the top here so now anything 
if we double click and we edit the nav bar here   on this page it'll automatically be edited also 
on the home page so the symbol is a really helpful   um way to kind of have a repeating element 
throughout your site you could do this for   the footer you could do this for a 
lot of different things on your site   so let's go back to the home page and 
perfect let's go ahead and hit publish so let's go ahead and go to our site and awesome 
so we have our top recipes we have our recipe blog   if we click in we have this and if we click 
back to our top recipes it's taking us   back to the home page one thing that's bothering 
me a little bit as i see this isn't um aligned um   so what i want to do is go back to our webflow 
designer i'm gonna double click on that nav bar   and then what i'm gonna do is take that 
brand and put it outside that container   i'm just going to delete the container and kind 
of create our own nav bar and then in the nav   bar i want it to have the same padding as our 
section so that's 74 on each side so this nav   bar let's double click let's click and do 74 
on the left 74 on the right so now let's just   make sure as we keep going here we're going 
to need to change it to 21 so let's go 21 21 and here we should be even whoops the brand 
has a um 10 padding so i'm just going to go   remove that on that break point here so now 
as we go down we're going to be even and it's   all going to be aligned and look a little bit 
nicer so let's go ahead and publish that now and let's go back to our site and whoops let's refresh and perfect so now we have our nav bar it's 
aligned it's all looking nice we can click to go   home and we can click on recipe here perfect so we 
have our recipe we have the photo the ingredients   uh the directions then if we click on 
this logo here at the top it's going to   take us back to our home page so hopefully 
this was a helpful beginner tutorial so   if you've gone through this tutorial you know kind 
of the basics of how to build most web webflow   sites so you know how to build different pages you 
know how to build out a collection list you know   how to build out specific collection pages and 
you know how to link around to the different sites   one more thing i want to show you how to do um 
so you understand uh the collection relations   um is add a collection um list in webflow that's 
going to have the cuisine type and this is just an   important concept for you to understand in webflow 
so let's go back really quick go to our cms we're   going to add a new collection and we're going 
to call this cuisine type and it's just going   to be name for now i don't think we even need to 
really do anything else in this beginner tutorial   so let's go ahead and create the collection and 
let's just add two so we're going to add italian   we're going to create and we're going to add 
thai and we're going to create we can even add   a mexican if we want so we have a third and 
let's go back to recipes and then in this recipe let's go ahead and edit that recipe collection 
list and we're going to add a new field and   it's going to be a reference field and this 
is going to be the cuisine type and we're   going to select a collection to rest reference 
which is the cuisine types and let's go ahead   and click save field and save collection and 
then you can go in to your individual recipes   and let's choose the cuisine type that it belongs 
to so we have thai we have thai and we have   italian and we have italian and i'm not going to 
get uh too detailed here but i am going to show   you kind of the power of this so i'm going to go 
to our pages and now because we created another   collection list we have our collection page here 
for cuisine type so let's go ahead and click on   cuisine type template let's just go ahead and add 
in a symbol let's add our navbar here at the top   and let's also go ahead and add a section 
let's give it that section class let's add   in our heading here and let's do h1 we're going 
to get text from cuisine type which is the name and then what i want to do is go back to our 
home page and in this section i want to go to   collection list wrapper and just copy it do 
command c or control c on your keyboard if   you're on a pc go back to our recipes temp not 
our recipes template our cuisine type template   make sure you're highlighted in that section and 
let's paste that in so here we have our collection   list wrapper now what we want to do here is hit 
the settings on the collection list wrapper not   there here the settings on the right and we want 
to filter and we're going to do is add a filter   where the cuisine type reference equals the 
current cuisine type so we're going to save that   so now on this italian page we are go 
automatically showing the italian recipes and on   the thai page we're automatically showing the thai 
recipes and because we copied the collection list   everything is going to all work the same so if we 
click on that image it's going to put us through   to that page so this is pretty cool and uh if 
we it's all going to automatically have the same   exact styles so let's just go to the home page 
really quickly and i'm going to show you how you   can kind of make this even more powerful so let's 
go ahead and add a collection list wrapper another   one and let's just add that right above uh that 
section and let's go ahead and have this be the   cuisine types and what we're going to add here are 
buttons to quickly um put users onto the specific   cuisine type that they're looking for so let's go 
ahead and add a link block here in the collection   item and let's make that link go to the current 
cuisine type which is that page that we just made   and then let's go ahead and add text inside and 
we're going to get the text from the cuisine type   and it's going to be that name so 
now we have all three names here   and let's just style this really quickly i think 
link um let's just style this let's name it um   cuisine link and give it no decoration 
and the color is going to be uh black   and the typography is going 
to be um guatta perfect   and then let's go to the collection 
list whoops collection list here we go   we want to change this to flex 
we want flex horizontal perfect   and then in the cuisine link uh let's go ahead and 
also add some padding here on the top and bottom   and let's make the background kind of like a 
light gray and then let's add 10 pixels of margin   on that right side there okay perfect and 
then let's pull that collection list wrapper   right there um in the section where we have 
our images and then let's also add some margin   below it so 30 margin below perfect so now we 
have these buttons mexicans high italian um on   that home page there okay great let's just check 
kind of how that looks on different screen sizes   that's all looking great and let's preview you 
can preview without publishing by clicking that   toggle preview button and if we click italian 
that's going to take us to the italian page   perfect so let's go back to home and 
why don't we go ahead and publish perfect so now if we go back 
to our recipe site and refresh uh perfect so now we have our homepage and we 
have our toggles here and we click and click on   italian and it's going to take us to our italian 
page we can click on the recipe and then we can   go back home there's a lot more that you could 
build into this if this were a more advanced   tutorial we can do hovering so as you hover over 
the link the color can change or it can kind of   go up a little bit when you hover over it so 
it kind of indicates that it can be clicked   we could add a lot more to these recipe pages 
but i think kind of as a basic tutorial hopefully   this is really helpful to kind of understand
