I cant figure out which one goes better with the navigation menu

After countless tweaks, redesigns, and second-guessing my own decisions...
My portfolio website is finally live.
This project pushed me to learn more about layout, responsiveness, interactions, and the small details that make a website feel polished.
It's not perfect, and it probably never will be, but that's part of the process.
Excited to keep building, learning, and improving with every project.

01 day of Building my Online Code Editor.
Most Framer sites I audit have the same invisible problem: every breakpoint is its own design.
Designer builds desktop. Then duplicates everything for tablet. Then again for mobile. Three versions, three sources of truth, and the moment you update the desktop hero copy, the other two are now wrong.
Here's the fix I use on every project now:
Build your component with Variants tied to breakpoint, not three separate frames. Set your base styles on the largest breakpoint, then only override what actually changes at smaller sizes; spacing, font size, stack direction. Don't redefine the whole component.
Then use Framer's "Hide on breakpoint" sparingly. If you're hiding more than one element per section, that's usually a sign the layout itself needs a different structure, not a patch.
The payoff: when a client asks for a copy change three weeks after launch, you edit one component and it cascades everywhere. No hunting through three frames hoping you didn't miss the tablet version.
Small habit, but it's the difference between a site that's a joy to maintain and one that quietly rots after handoff.
What's your biggest Framer responsiveness headache? Curious if it's the same thing I keep seeing.
