Framer is still my default for client sites: a few pages, one language, a team that edits often and needs to ship fast.
My own site went the other way. Three CMS collections and two languages meant a higher plan plus a paid locale every year, so I rebuilt it in code with the same design. On mobile, the home page went from 435β580 KB of JavaScript to 12 KB, and the speed score from 58β93 to 97β99.
If you're an agency choosing a stack for a client, the question isn't which tool is better. It's how much the site will grow.
A few years ago I had the chance to take a course where one of the modules was taught by a designer I really admire, Joseph Berry.
The goal was to create a website for a product, in this case, a speaker. We went through the entire process, from receiving the brief to the very last detail, even modeling the product ourselves in 3D using Spline.
I learned so much, and also got to meet great designers. Itβs amazing to see how each one has a different process, and having the chance to observe that and take a bit from each way of doing things to make it your own and develop a unique result really helps you grow a lot as a professional.
Iβm sharing some frames from the project, hope you like them!
