Design and build — in one place

Framer started as a prototyping tool for designers, but it has evolved into a full website builder. Instead of exporting Figma designs to code, you now directly design inside Framer and publish live sites instantly.

Everything from layout, typography, and breakpoints to custom animations can be adjusted visually. But behind the scenes, Framer generates clean React-based code — so the performance and flexibility remain top-notch.

Why creators love it

• No-code simplicity: You can drag, drop, and style — no HTML or CSS required.
• Built-in animations: Smooth motion effects powered by Framer Motion without writing a line of JavaScript.
• Responsive by default: Components adapt automatically to screen sizes with simple resize handles.
• AI layout assistant: Suggests layout improvements, spacing, and font pairing using real-time AI hints.
• SEO-friendly: Clean code output, metadata controls, and instant page loads out of the box.

The AI boost: design that understands intent

One of Framer’s most powerful 2025 additions is its AI section generator. You describe what you want — for example, “a pricing section with three tiers and a call to action” — and it instantly creates a beautiful, editable layout.

It even suggests animations, gradients, and button styles that match your brand palette. The result? You spend less time tweaking pixels and more time focusing on your story.

From idea to live site — in hours, not weeks

Agencies, freelancers, and startups have all embraced Framer because it reduces the distance between concept and launch. Here’s what a typical workflow looks like:

1. Start with a template: Choose from modern, pre-built layouts optimized for different industries.
2. Edit visually: Replace content, images, and icons directly on the canvas — no code editor needed.
3. Connect a custom domain: Built-in hosting means you can publish with one click.
4. Analyze performance: Framer tracks page speed and engagement via integrated analytics.
