Compare Framer with other popular tools in the same category.
I like the function for import design from Sketch and the new possibility to create prototype without write code.
Basically I like everything, I don't use it anymore only because I don't need to make complicated prototypes so Principle fits for me better.
You can make more complicated prototypes than with Principle.
Framer makes it possible for UX designers to showcase their design in an easier way. It is really good for professionals to express their ideas and support the ideas by really clickable and feasible solutions. Overall it is really helpful for designers to communicate with developers or product team.
It required a lot of time input to learn how to user Framer. I had some basic programming skills like HTML, Javascript and even a bit of Python, but it was still difficult for me to dive into the coding part. The tutorials help just basic ones and I wish there are more intermediate examples/templates available.
It's mostly validating ideas and showing that the design is codable. Sometimes developers push back the ideas, as designers, you need to validate that they were really feasible ones. The application is like a bridge between designers and developers that help them build their common ground.
feels like sketch, behave like figma , working like webflow , its a clouds so anywhere you can access , complexity of the animation workflow
free account is very limited, compare to webflow or figma
everything is on there from design to publish
I like being able to do animations for developers. It's much easier to make it in Framer sometimes than try to explain it.
I find it hard when I get stuck in coding to be able to do what I want. I don't have a programming background and find it difficult.
