Great video Matt! Loving Framer and have just finished my first build after moving from Webflow. Would be great to see a video on how you build your components.

[@patrickslayter9946]

That is really awesome. I've been thinking about starting my own business doing webdesign and you've sold me on using Figma + Framer to do it.

[@mczreo]

What are you using figma for? Why not build directly in framer?

[@derekberndt]

Very helpful and the Whereby site is impressive. How did you implement the "Load More" functionality in their blog?

[@mirm0n]

Great to see real agencies switching to framer and it working even better! Framer is crazy simple which made it really easy for me as a designer to learn

[@cybercereal]

can you show us how you set those variables or parameters for the clients?

[@designerjoana]

Hi just wanna ask how you export designs to clients in framer?

[@BrendanMKav]

It’s pretty interesting cause I agree with everything you’re saying about client hand off so they can take control.. what’s strange to me is that this is the same approach I take, but with Squarespace, which does everything your talking about and more with far less set up initially, completely custom designs, saved sections (components essentially) and true drag&drop customizability for the clients.. yet most people seem to have a dislike toward squarespace for some reason, or assume it’s not as customizable as other options (which isn’t true, just needs a tiny bit more know how or third party plug-ins). I’m not 💩ing on Framer or you opinion cause I completely agree with you, it’s just fascinating to me that the benefits you’re selling to you clients using framer are exactly the same as what I offer to mine using Squarespace, yet just by the name of the platform people appreciate it more 🤷‍♂️ I’m planning to make some switches over to Webflow & Framer in the coming months. It’ll be interesting to see how much more praise I get for providing literally the exact same service using either of these platforms 😅 People tend to follow hype I guess, so that must be what the clients are seeing/hearing and a preference based on that before they interact with a service provider. I’d love to do A/B/C testing with identical service but on distinct platforms and see which perform best just because of the platform name 🤔 (I’m not going to sink the time into that though haha.. if someone else wants to do it, please do)

[@daliafatima8463]

Framer go faster and faster, hoping the course would be release soon !

[@hisanzee3052]

Completely Agreed. I took Ryan's Course and already got to work on my first two website projects. As a complete novice, what i delivered was not something that was ever possible before. Totally a game changer.

[@ahbegnueg]

I'd like to ask you a few questions about the course if you don't mind. Is the course worth it and beginner-friendly? Can I really learn everything I need to know through this course? Does Ryan teach the whole process of finding clients, selling websites, and effectively communicating with them? Also, could you provide some insights on the costs involved? I have no idea how to handle that aspect or how to determine what a client should pay monthly, especially when it comes to choosing the pricing options in Framer. Additionally, I would like to know if the course is truly worth the money. What did you like the most about it, and were there any aspects that you didn't particularly enjoy? I would appreciate your insights on how the course was for you, as I don't know Ryan, but I have researched and his videos seem cool and helpful.

but can you export design from framer to react ? so i could import some of theese into existing project. Or move project to different hosting.

[@coffeecatcode5465]

Don’t think so. Also I think Framer doesn’t use vanilla React, rather it uses Next.js for SSR

[@clovermk1635]

love this!

[@regeneric59]

How does framer compare to 10web?

[@aga_borzyszkowska]

The way you handle components is seriously impressive, did you plan and design first in Figma and translate to Framer? or is it Framer only?

[@mattjumper]

Thank you! This was Framer only:)

That's really awesome@@mattjumper

Framer, Webflow, Framer, Webflow…😵‍💫🤷‍♂️

[@Malini108]

thats exactly how i feel too

[@hisanzee3052]

I tried web flow, and felt the same as Matt. Little overwhelming. But framer was a game changer for me. Was just excited about it. The learning curve is fun and now I build websites too. Someone who never did it before, and one month of taking Ryan’s course and a few KZbin tutorials and the community remixes and support is great, and I am a website designer too!

Great video. Although I was distracted by the horrifying demon face staring at me through the mesh in your chair (to the left of your head) 😅

[@mfjae]

Would your framer course teach me the things this guy is talking about in regards how he ships a site to his client?

[@digitalsketchguy7844]

I'm going to give Framer a serious look. Those CMS features are powerful enough for 90% of businesses wanting to self-edit and make small design changes. I do believe Webflow is still king of the no-code once you master it. Being able to export the code decouples you from their ecosystem too - think cheap static hosting.

wow i didn’t know framer is so sotisficated

[@AS-ld5mz]

so you hand the site to the client just like that? like a figma file? that's dangerous

[@coffeecatcode5465]

Why?

[@geetak582]

When you say "high paying clients", are enterprises moving to Framer too?

[@garretcullman6957]

Not to sound snarky or anything, but shouldn't Flux try and put out a Figma course first before Framer? They're suppose to be an online design school but to not have anything dedicated to Figma is kinda weird.

[@FluxAcademy]

You're 100% correct! Figma course is in the making as we speak!

[@thewebstylist]

Don’t understand first part of this video as anyone in hosue could update the content of a solid WordPress site build.

I have some questions to you. 1.Is it essential to learn figma before framer? 2.Is it essential to learn HTML CSS before framer? 3.What is the prerequisite for learning framer? 4.Is learning figma helps to framer? Please answer these questions I am new to this field.

[@ducksquidbat8315]

The site this guy built (whereby) is an absolute mess from a markup perspective. You have like 18 tags nested where you could just have a simple image. Also, who chose that typography? A blind person?

The site looks good wdym 😂😂

[@ducksquidbat8315]

@@angelc4 The typography is my perspective but regardless, the HTML is an absolute nightmare.

[@angelc4]

@@ducksquidbat8315 html doesn’t matter

[@rafalpotasz]

From a (real (coding)) developers point of view, the markup is a nightmare, yeah. I also dislike the infinite nesting and over-complexities that these sort of systems implement, whilst looking really minimal on the 'no code' development side. But 18 divs overall don't matter to my understanding. If they have no semantic meaning, no tab-index, etc, they are just ignored by a search engine, right? I don't really see performance being an issue (unless it is). I'm wondering why this would be an issue, am I missing something? I don't use low/no-code tools, I code everything up in SvelteKit (atm). So I'm legitimately wondering.

[@leonardorodriguez9121]

The HTML does affect technical SEO because if you have two pages with the same value in content, you code will be one of the tie-breakers. More unnecessary divs influence crawl time as it takes just a bit longer to find the elements. For a small page doesn't matter as much, but for a company with thousands of pages, those extra milliseconds will pile up a deplete the crawl budget

[@MacAutomationTips]

Hmmm, sorry, but not a good introduction to using Framer.
