Building Framer Templates | Documenting my Journey

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

A week ago my Fraems site had broken buttons, a missing image and a form that lost every email.

Now it's live. Built in Framer after my day job.

"Your work deserves a better frame."

Free Framer component drops Saturday.

What would you change first?

@josephdsign Hey man,
I'm a Framer Designer, documenting my journey, starting from scratch.
Let's connect

@Franklin119ai looks fresh, although I personally wouldn‘t say that the hero section is the most eye catching part of the website. Maybe have a look at that.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

Started building my first Framer template today, and I'm doing the design system from my terminal.

One command (npx @framer/agent setup) and Codex can read and write my actual Framer project: colour styles, text styles, components.

Didn't even know this existed a week ago. 🤯

@reinventingomar What was Framer not keeping up with: performance, interactions, or just how fast you wanted to iterate?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@victoria_framer @framer Native as in zero code overrides? Curious whether scroll transforms or variant chaining is doing most of the work here.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@Uxridham 19 in, what's the one thing you do on day one now that you skipped on template #1?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@krutikkkkkkkkk CMS case studies are what keep an agency template usable after launch, since that's the page studios update most. Did you build a fixed case study layout or flexible sections?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@justyna_framer @framer 100 days of this is the fastest way to learn code components. What's been the hardest part so far, the code itself or making it behave on the canvas?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@mrblackstudio @framer The overlay-on-complex-pages part is the real test. Glass on a flat gradient is easy, glass over scrolling images and text is where most versions get muddy.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@anwarlemu_ Making /work the homepage is a bold call. With the homepage getting 83x the visits, do the case study pages still matter, or is the carousel doing all the selling now?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@7sync_tech That for sure, and honestly that's where AI comes handy.
I always used AI for components like that, and it always worked for me.

Btw, I see you also design on Framer, let's connect.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@nalinrajput23 AI gets the layout right and the positioning wrong. The $10k is mostly for figuring out what to say and who it's for. The build is the cheap part now.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@laurilllll @framer Curious how you found out the site plans were the hard part, from buyer feedback or from testing it yourself with real content?

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@imananddesigner @X Hey man,
I‘m into Framer Design, lets connect.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@Franklin119ai No worries. Since you‘re also into Framer Designer, let‘s connect we might be useful to eachother👀😂

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]

@SonalRastogi101 @claudeai @framer Curious which part Claude speeds up most for you, the structure and copy or the actual build? Feels like the last bit of polish still happens on the canvas.

[Tamas Meszaros @framerbytamas]
