FramerAI-Assisted Website Builder that Turns Prompts and Designs into Responsive, Publishable Sites

Should I use code to integrate tokens or build design systems for my team?

No. While many designers dream about a deeper design and production integration with code, Framer is not currently setup to get great results for that use case.

Should I add state management to let components communicate?

This may be alright in some cases, but if you need to do advanced logic, you are often better off with a real React application. Both Framer and your state management will try and control components, and conflicts can cause subtle bugs.

Should I use external code libraries with Framer?

Framer can import any ES Module based code. But the code itself generally is only useful in Framer if it’s made for Framer. So importing large libraries that did not have Framer as the main use case in mind will likely not yield the expected results.

Can I import npm packages?

Importing npm packages is currently an experimental feature. Most packages typically don’t work unless they were built specifically for Framer. Some projects with multiple npm imports may run into errors with adding multiple npm dependencies, as sub-dependency conflicts can occur.

Can I import Framer components into my React application directly?

Framer components are React Components based on ES Modules. That means that you can technically import them into other projects, but in reality there are quite a few hurdles to overcome, so we only recommend this for testing or if you really know what you are doing. We had experimented with making the experience easier for this with a beta feature called Handshake. But as this relied on the Next.js compiler which is currently being rewritten and browser features that aren’t broadly supported yet, you should consider it very experimental for some time.
