This article is primarily of interest to Relume-style "component library" developers, who want to copy and paste elements from an external website into the Webflow designer.

Webflow has a special clipboard format used to capture and transport information about elements, classes styles that need to be copied from one page to another, or from one site to another.

The format is not publically documented however there are a number of good resources online for the technically-minded.
