Framer Development — Soleno Studio

Why Framer?

Framer is the modern platform for building production-ready websites with design-grade precision. It combines visual editing with real React components, giving you websites that look stunning and perform exceptionally well.

Unlike traditional website builders, Framer gives you fine-grained control over every interaction, animation, and layout detail. The result is a website that feels custom-built — because it is — without the complexity or cost of a fully custom codebase.

What We Build in Framer

Marketing Websites — High-converting landing pages and multi-page marketing sites with scroll animations, micro-interactions, and responsive layouts.
Startup Landing Pages — Launch-ready pages designed to convert. Waitlist forms, product demos, pricing tables, and social proof sections.
Portfolio & Agency Sites — Custom-designed portfolios with filterable project grids, case study pages, and smooth page transitions.
CMS-Powered Sites — Blog systems, resource libraries, team directories, and any content that needs to be updated without touching code.
Product Websites — Feature showcases, documentation sites, changelog pages, and product-led growth landing pages.

Custom Framer Development — Not Templates

Every Framer site we build is designed and developed from scratch. We don't use templates, starter kits, or pre-built components. This means your website is unique to your brand — custom layouts, interactions, animations, CMS structure, and responsive behavior.

We write clean, organized Framer projects with proper component architecture, consistent naming conventions, and documented CMS structures. When you need to make updates or hand it off to another developer, everything makes sense.

Framer CMS & Dynamic Content

Framer's built-in CMS is powerful when used correctly. We structure your collections with proper field types, relationships, and slugs so your content scales cleanly. Blog posts, team members, case studies, testimonials, job listings — we've built CMS systems for all of them.

We also set up SEO-friendly URL structures, automatic sitemap generation, and Open Graph meta tags so every page is optimized for search engines and social sharing.

Performance & SEO

A beautiful Framer site that loads slowly is a problem. We optimize every site for Core Web Vitals — LCP under 2.5 seconds, INP under 200ms, and CLS under 0.1. This means using WebP/AVIF images, lazy loading below-the-fold content, limiting font families, and animating only GPU-accelerated properties.

Every Framer site we ship scores 90+ on Google PageSpeed Insights. We aim for 95+.

Animations & Interactions

Animations are Framer's superpower, and we use them intentionally. Scroll-triggered reveals, hover effects, page transitions, parallax elements, and micro-interactions that make your site feel alive without sacrificing performance.

We animate transform and opacity properties (GPU-accelerated) and avoid layout-triggering properties. The result is smooth 60fps animations on every device, including mobile.

Our Framer Projects

We've built Framer sites for startups, agencies, SaaS companies, and creative studios. Recent projects include Nexus and VVC Media — both designed and developed from scratch in Framer.

Framer vs Webflow vs custom code

Honest trade-offs between the three most common stacks for marketing sites. We build in all three — the right pick depends on your team and what comes next.

Dimension	Framer	Webflow	Custom code (Next.js)
Time to launch	2–4 weeks	3–6 weeks	6–12 weeks
Marketing-team editing	Excellent	Excellent	Needs a CMS layer
Animations & interactions	Best-in-class out of the box	Good	Unlimited — but you build them
SEO / Core Web Vitals	Excellent (CDN + image opt)	Good, can degrade with heavy interactions	Unmatched with correct setup
App / product UI	Not the right tool	Not the right tool	The right tool
Hosting / vendor lock-in	Framer hosting required	Webflow hosting required	Any host (Vercel, Cloudflare, self-host)
Best for	Founders & design-led marketing sites	Content-heavy marketing sites	Apps, dashboards, SaaS

Framer development at Soleno — in five questions.

When should I pick Framer over a custom Next.js site?

Framer is the right choice for marketing sites, product pages, and landing pages where the content team needs to update copy and pages without engineering involvement. Pick custom Next.js when you need auth, dashboards, complex business logic, deep third-party integrations, or product UI that lives behind a login.

Can I edit the site without touching code after launch?

Yes — that's the whole point. We hand over a Framer workspace where your team can edit copy, swap images, publish new pages from the CMS, and tweak typography — all without touching a deploy pipeline. We document the components and CMS schema so onboarding the next person takes minutes.

How fast does a Framer site actually load?

Framer's CDN, image optimization, and lazy-loading are first-class — our recent builds hit 90+ Lighthouse performance on mobile with all animations enabled. We audit Core Web Vitals before launch and tune the components / images that push LCP or CLS into yellow.

How long does a Framer project take?

Most marketing-site projects ship in 2–4 weeks. Larger sites with CMS modeling, multiple page templates, custom code components, or multilingual content go up to 6–8 weeks. Every project is broken into clear weekly milestones with previews you can review live.

Do you handle the design, or do I bring designs to you?

Both work. We can take an existing Figma file and rebuild it pixel-perfect in Framer with interactions and animations, or we can design from a blank canvas based on brand guidelines and a content outline. Most clients prefer the second — it's faster because design decisions happen inside Framer where they ship.
