…perties for Webflow integration
Removed the broken imports of Section, Block, and Link from @/devlink/_Builtin in src/app/page.tsx — these are user-generated and don't exist in a fresh clone, so the Next build failed. The homepage now uses native section/div/a elements with styles extracted into page.css. Added "@webflow" path alias to tsconfig.json so DevLink components can be imported as `import { ComponentName } from "@webflow"` once synced, and updated layout.tsx to use it for DevLinkProvider. Updated the docs link to /data-clients/docs/getting-started to match the scaffold change in webflow/webflow-cli#589.
Drops src/app/page.css and inlines the equivalent styles on the section, heading, paragraph, and link elements. Matches the inline-style convention used in the homepage before the DevLink components were removed.
The @import "../devlink/global.css" in globals.css breaks the build on a fresh clone because the file is user-generated by `webflow devlink sync`. Also corrected the relative path to "../webflow/global.css" so it matches the devlink-export rootDir in webflow.json once uncommented.
The "@webflow" tsconfig path was pointing at ./webflow, but DevLink exports to ./src/webflow per webflow.json's `devlink-export.rootDir`. Also restored the Webflow global styles import in globals.css with the correct path: ../webflow/css/global.css (the file is generated by the DevLink export which runs automatically after init).
Removes the dedicated "@webflow" path alias from tsconfig and switches layout.tsx to import DevLinkProvider via the existing "@/*" alias — import { DevLinkProvider } from "@/webflow/DevLinkProvider"; Also updates the example-import hint in page.tsx to match.
Switches the side-effect CSS import in layout.tsx back to the idiomatic sibling-relative form: import "./globals.css"; Next's built-in type defs only declare *.module.css, so plain *.css side-effect imports raised "Cannot find module or type declarations". Adds src/types.d.ts with `declare module "*.css";` to cover it.

Summary
The homepage in
src/app/page.tsximportedSection,Block, andLinkfrom@/devlink/_Builtin. Those files are user-generated bywebflow devlink syncand don't exist in a fresh clone, sonext buildfails immediately after running this template. This PR removes the broken imports and replaces the markup with native HTML elements (with inline styles) so the project builds and runs out of the box.This mirrors the equivalent scaffold change in webflow/webflow-cli#589, which already removed these internal component dependencies from the non-DevLink scaffolds shipped via
