First time working on a Claude Code site as a Framer dev. The AI did a solid job building it but iterating on design through prompts vs. a visual canvas is a completely different experience. Each tool has its lane.
@Framer is the goat here.
I use Claude Code daily, it's not the tool, it's the workflow. Framer's speed for design work is just unmatched.
Yes! I have also feeled the same 👍

Claude's engineer explains Skills from scratch
the first 5 minutes
wait. Skills are just folders?
folders that hold onto your workflow?
your domain? your expertise?
pause. rewind. I watch again
I think about every prompt I've rewritten from scratch
every context I've explained 100 times
every session that forgot everything
this shouldn't have happened like that
16 minutes. everything changes

I recently redesigned my website, which presents Framer services and template work, and the process became more technical than visual over time.
The interesting part is that most improvements came from reducing complexity rather than adding more interface elements.
Less motion competing for attention.
More controlled contrast between surfaces.
More intentional spacing behavior between content-heavy sections.
Stronger typography hierarchy instead of relying on decorative visuals.
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how modern portfolio websites often optimize for immediate visual impact but quietly reduce readability and trust after a few seconds of navigation.
So the goal here became creating something that feels structured and calm, even when the interface becomes dense.
Still refining the system before considering it finished, and would genuinely value critiques from other Framer designers/developers here.
Especially around pacing, hierarchy, and areas where the experience still feels unresolved.
