Can I upload individual html, css, and javascript files as separate pages in Webflow Hosting or do I need to switch to a different hosting provider?

In Webflow, you cannot directly upload individual HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files as separate pages in Webflow Hosting. Webflow uses its own visual web design and development platform, allowing you to create and design websites using their drag-and-drop interface, and then export and upload the entire project to Webflow Hosting.

However, this doesn't mean that you need to switch to a different hosting provider if you have pre-designed HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files. Webflow allows you to import code snippets and embed custom code into your project, which means you can integrate your existing code into your Webflow project. Here's how you can do it:

1. Create a new page in your Webflow project.
2. Go to the page settings by selecting the page in the Navigator panel and clicking on the cog icon.
3. In the Page Settings panel, click on the "Custom Code" tab.
4. Here, you can add your CSS and JavaScript code by pasting it into the respective fields. You can also import your HTML code into custom code blocks within the Webflow Designer.

By using custom code, you can import and integrate your existing code files into your Webflow project. This allows you to leverage the power of Webflow's visual design tools while including your own custom code.

It's worth noting that although you can add custom code to your Webflow project, it's important to understand the limitations. Custom code may impact the performance, responsiveness, and compatibility of your website in the Webflow Designer. Therefore, it's recommended to thoroughly test and ensure that your imported code works correctly within the Webflow environment.

If you have a large codebase or require complex server-side functionality, you may need to consider an alternative hosting solution that supports traditional web development approaches. However, for most cases, Webflow's ability to import and integrate custom code should be sufficient.
