I recently signed up for a “free” live event where Nandi was going to explain how he made $11,579 with Framer in 60 days. Instead, I got an 11-minute teaser for a paid course (over $800).

I have no issue with selling knowledge, I pay for courses. The issue was how it was communicated.

The event promised value but delivered no real insights; just high-level content leading to a paid offer. After all the buildup, it felt misleading.

With a background in communication and PR, this doesn’t sit right with me. Transparency matters.

If it had been clearly positioned as a preview, that would be fine. But presenting it as valuable free content and delivering a teaser instead felt a bit inelegant.

For the Mobbin x Contra challenge, I used Mobbin as a research tool to study high-quality e-commerce flows and product page patterns.

Focused on understanding what actually works: → structure and hierarchy → spacing and readability → how minimal design supports conversion

Then translated those insights into an original e-commerce template, built in Framer and connected with Frameship to simulate a real product setup.

This is the current version: https://nocturn.framer.website/

Still a work in progress, but I wanted to share the direction early and document the process.

The goal is to create something that feels like a real product, not just visually clean, but structured, usable, and ready to scale.

Would love your thoughts: What feels right? What feels off? What would you improve?

Dark, monochromatic vibe certainly matches the mono black products, very cohesive look & feel with great UX & Frameship functions! 👍

AI isn’t replacing designers. It’s exposing average design.

Tried Google Stitch vs my design. Yes, it generates Fast but it still can't match the design level. Good layout. Fast. But side by side… the difference shows.

Good ≠ Thoughtful. AI follows patterns. Designers make decisions.

AI generates. Designers refine.

Still not over for designers. Not even close.

What are your thoughts on it?👇
