To make a gallery you can use CMS to build it super easly. You have to adjust the stack and add an overlay to your mini, displaying the same image in both states just different size and that's it

Man! This is such a valuable video. Will consider your masterclass. Seems that you are one of the few creators that ACTUALLY gets it...

I was also thinking, becoming a Framer expert and also becoming a Webflow expert, plus mastering UI principles and UX psychology, is a great goal. I'm currently hunting for that, what do you think?

Informative and no nonsense. Thank you. Subbed

What I miss on Youtube is videos that look further into using components as optional CMS items. Like adding a quote or a button for certain blogs, but not for other bogs.

I have been using Framer since a few months and honestly its been amazing. I have started building websites for clients as freelancer designer. However, I am struggling to make a E-comm website for one of my friend who sells artworks here in India. I feel the backend support to run it is missing. Do y'all see that changing anytime in the near future?

I've been wanting to code my own components to add custom property controls on the canvas like you mentioned around 1:50. Where do I start? I don't know how to code but I'm pretty good with Framer and want to learn new skills. What language should I learn to create custom components with custom property controls on the canvas like that? Is it React? I'd love to know the complete stack needed to do this. Thanks.

Hello @Matt - Thank you for this video. I started with Framer few months ago etc. and now building a megamenu with nested interactive components, but now that I am trying to assemble the navigation, FGramer loses them, do not updates them and is very slow. I have been saving the components in the workspace and dividing components in multiple files"projects". I don't know how Framer can hold 150 pages if breaks components, I am stuck since the past two weeks. Are there any best practice or rules that I am missing . I created many breakpoints (320-2560). Is there any issues with breakpoints? Thank you so much for your help.

Its all cool but having to pay all the time for each extra is just unreasonable overhead.

[DesignDen]

Could you make a tutorial on how to create one such website

[chicpak]

I really wanted to do CMS sort like finsweet on framer. Can framer do that?

[ffmde]

Good video, but still theres a lot do manually in Framer while Webflow does it automatically a lot of stuff, like if you want a section that shows only "Featured" blog posts or a specific menu category, you just set a filter. Webflow does the rest, keeping everything dynamically organized.

Hey flux academy, question here, How can I create a figma frame of 1440x1024 responsive on website so it won't loose its quality and look same on mobile screens

[Applecitylightkiwi]

But webflow custom code is already a lot of money a month. It really depends on the goal yeah

Yes, you CAN build complex websites, but dont expect them to be stable.
