Tips for Best Results
Optimize Images Before Export
Framer sites can have large images. For better performance:
- Compress images in Framer before publishing
- Use appropriate image formats (WebP when possible)
- Set proper image dimensions
Keep Animations Simple
While FramerToHTML preserves most animations, complex Framer-specific interactions may need manual adjustment. Stick to CSS-animatable properties for best results.
Test Responsive Layouts
After export, test your site at different viewport sizes. Framer's responsive features translate well, but always verify.
