    I am strongly advising against using this products for anything serious.

Unreliable and buggy with 0 customer support. Apparently there is a limit to how large your webpages could be. Apparently there is NO WAY FOR THE USER TO KNOW THIS LIMIT. Apparently if the page is reaching this limit, all the weird stuff start to happen. Other pages in your project also become "too large", when couple of days ago it wasn't the case. The upload happens in a weird way. It uploads a weird mishmash of desktop and mobile layouts and there is no way to fix it. The project is becoming permanently corrupt and there is no way to restore it. Start all over. Might as well code it all yourself and spend equal amount of time.

For the low low price of $20 per months for editor + $30 per hosting per month you will receive a "go to community forum ask dumb """AI""" bot or other clueless users" kind of support. I.e. none whatsoever.

The issue I am describing is crippling and present for several month. Developers prefer to not notice.

Use at your own peril, or rather don't.

The preview and the upload mismatch completely. Components start to behave weirdly and ignore the parameters you have set. The preview is showing you some kind of cached version with sections deleted more than hour prior to running the preview. Section parameters like positioning and sizes are ignored. To top it off - lack of technical support. Because my account is not a paying customer. I have brought several paying clients to Framer but I won't do that any more.

From Leo AI: "Framer does not allow you to export your website as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.. However, .. you can export CSS code directly from the design tool for use in web development."

What is Framer?

Framer combines the power of code with the ease of visual editing. Prototype beautiful microinteractions or realistic apps. It’s time to design with development in mind.

It’s got all the team collaboration features you’d want in a high-fidelity prototyping tool: multi-player editing, easy sharing, inline commenting, reusable components, mobile preview, and developer handoff. But let’s cut right to what makes this one of the best design and prototyping tools on the market.

Framer has a mobile app to view and interact with your Framer X and Framer Classic projects on Android/iOS phones and tablets called Framer Preview
