Framer

Went from prototyping tool to full no-code website builder. Good when you want a polished marketing site live today without writing any code.

What is Framer?

Framer started as a design and interaction prototyping tool and has since grown into a full no-code website builder, letting you design, animate, and publish a live marketing site without writing code or handing a design off to a developer to implement. It keeps a visual, direct-manipulation canvas similar to Figma's, but what you build is the actual production site, not just a mockup that still needs to be coded.

Key features

  • Visual, no-code site builder with the direct-manipulation feel of a design tool rather than a page-builder plugin
  • Built-in animation and interaction tools for scroll effects, transitions, and micro-interactions without custom code
  • CMS functionality for blog posts and other structured content, editable without touching the design canvas
  • Responsive breakpoint editing built into the same visual canvas
  • One-click publishing and hosting, no separate deploy step or hosting provider needed

Who it's for

Founders and small teams who want a polished, animated marketing site live today without a developer or a separate design-to-code handoff. For a product's actual application (not the marketing site around it), or for anything needing deep custom logic, you'll still want real code.

Pricing

Free tier for basic sites, paid subscription tiers based on traffic, custom domains, and CMS features.
