I recently moved my personal portfolio from React.js + Vercel to @Framer, and it has been one of the best decisions I've made for my website.

Previous portfolio: https://arslan-portfolio-lilac.vercel.app/

New portfolio Framer : https://arslan-mumtaz.framer.website/

I originally built my portfolio with React.js, giving me complete control over every component. It worked well, but every design update or content change required going back into the code.

With Framer, I still have the flexibility to build custom components when I need them, but everyday editing is much faster and more intuitive. The growing community of ready-made components also saves a lot of development time without sacrificing customization.

Some of the biggest improvements I've noticed: • Faster content and design updates without touching code • Better SEO and built-in performance optimizations • Smooth animations and interactions out of the box • Responsive design that's easy to fine-tune • A huge library of community components that speed up development • Full freedom to customize components exactly how I want

As a developer, I still enjoy building with React, but for a personal portfolio where I want to iterate quickly, Framer provides a much smoother workflow.

The result is a faster, cleaner, and easier-to-maintain portfolio that lets me focus more on showcasing my work instead of maintaining the codebase.

Curious to hear from others who've made the switch what's been your experience with Framer?
