From what I can tell so far from Framer, it is a landing page creator, but I am hoping to be proven wrong and will see it can do a lot more than that

Hi Omar, one of my reasons to build websites is because of producing content and landing pages for starting companies as quickly as possible. You are right, when I was looking for a solution during the pandemic to transition from Wordpress, Webflow was the obvious choice, but something happens after years of using Webflow, you will still feel the need for Figma because I think some people are very creative and free-thinking, that's why Figma is needed separately. Now with Framer, I hope the gap from idea, design, creativity to production/publish gets smaller and smaller. I am now going to try Framer. Please make more Framer videos and become the pioneer. PS even big KZfaqrs who promote Webflow has a Framer tutorial. LOL. Thank you.

Huge thanks for this deep dive! I'm a design post-grad who's used to (due to assignments) design in Figma / Sketch and then have to manually code it from scratch. Therefore, my creativity has been limited, as I only designed websites that I was surely able to implement with HTML/CSS myself. That's why now I'm really looking into stepping up my game by learning either Framer or Webflow. My biggest criteria is to have the possibility to export it as code so that I'm still able to tweak minor stuff afterwards. Can Framer export the work as HTML/CSS? Webflow definitely can.

Webflow isn't really a no-code platform. It's definitely low-code, but what it REALLY is is VISUAL coding. You're literally dragging and dropping HTML elements onto a FIXED canvas and applying styles via classes/IDs and dropdown menus. Webflow is more familiar for frontend developers than designers. Framer, on the other hand, extrapolates most of the code on an OPEN canvas. It just feels like a design tool by comparison.

Webflow is definitely a lot better in this aspect where you could just export the code and use it like any other frontend developer. It's a tool that allows you to upgrade your skill later, whereas Framer is basically a dead end. You have to learn to actually code in HTML, CSS & JavaScript eventually anyways, so for this reason I'd recommend using Webflow for upward mobility.

I don't think it's even close. I'm curious on how you made the jump? How do you deal with all the huge limitations of framer? Simple things like galleries, and videos on the cms end. How do you do animations? I guess that's custom coded? I can't even figure out how to make a button in this thing. I can make a component but you can't just drag and drop the component in and then change the text. I guess you need to make a new component for each button which is DUMB. I just feel like this isn't for serious use but maybe I'm missing something.

He means that it's very likely there will be minor differences between the Figma designs and the Webflow site because they use different properties, have to be done in different places, and are often done with different teams handing things off. The biggest thing is how comfy you are with code, I'd say!

Well if you need more advanced feature I think webflow would be a better option right now. Also with framer you should ideally have a lot of design experience, although you can get away with templates or their pre made components with little design knowledge. I would say webflow is much better and even easier (once you learn it) than Wordpress in any case. Learning curve is about 1 week max and totally worth it.

Im new to web design, and I want to become a freelancer. As it seems many people are switching from webflow into framer, would u recommend me to start in a framer over webflow? I know basics of both just cant figure out which one has more potential. Framer is growing quickly but can it outgrow webflow?

If your a designer, I would recommend Framer, as it's growing fast, and it's a design-led workflow. But if your a developer then start with Webflow, it will be better suited for you.
