Building a Directory with Webflow and Relume Application Components

At a glance

The community member is looking to build a directory of tools and service providers using Webflow and Relume application components. They are familiar with Relume but not with building complex CMS structures required for this project. The community member asks if they can use Airtable as the main database and sync it with the Webflow CMS, while maintaining the categories and sections set up in Airtable.

In the comments, another community member suggests using tools like Nobull for Airtable (soon to be called CMS Bridge), Power Importer, or Whale Sync to sync Airtable with Webflow CMS. They mention that these tools can be used to build powerful web apps with Airtable as the database.

Hey all, I'm looking to build a directory of tools and service providers using Webflow + Relume application components. I've been using Relume library for over 2 years now so my first instinct is to build with what I know. However, I'm not totally familiar with building complex CMS structures as this website would require. As an example of the directory's layout, let's just use the Relume library directory as an example as the layout will be pretty similar.

My question is for someone familiar with Webflow CMS and/or building directories in Webflow:
Since I will be compiling the tools and service provider's info in Airtable, will I be able to use Airtable as my main database and sync it to Webflow CMS while maintaining the categories/sections setup in Airtable? For instance, one database contains service providers with their biz name, number, description, category, tags, etc. Can I sync the Webflow CMS and make updates in only Airtable?

Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Nobull for airtable (soon to be called CMS Bridge) will be one tool. Power Importer, or whale sync.

Would search youtube around these tools but yeah you can build a lot of powerful web apps with airtable as your database
