    I’ve never had a reason through work to get into figma, even though I’ve wanted to. But now with Sites, I can’t wait. What a perfect solution to my problem of wanting a website creation software for designers who don’t know shit about coding a good website. I’m giving myself a website project to teach myself.

    • Framer and Webflow are already fine for this case, but Figma Sites might be even easier.

    • Asking again... why would anyone downvote this?mg33
    • lol, bitter neckbeards I guessmonospaced
    • Graf, for me it’s about using a tool that will be the better use of time, and the most potential for use in my career. Framer and webflow aren’t that for me.monospaced
    • mg33, did I get downvoted somewhere else?monospaced
    • Butbut there are like a gazillion sitebuilder solutions, this isn't anything new or groundbreaking.

    • I upvoted, you have a point dumbass
      ********
    • Webflow let's you export code, I doubt Figma will let us export code.

      But I am pretty sure Figma will buy Adobe soon enough, they will own the full stack

    • Webflow and Framer are platform lockin

      Avoid platform lockins for clients

      Sure, way easier to build a folio on Framer, but don't involve clients

    • Plenty of "Framer experts" on X and Contra
      Next we will see "Figma Sites expert" badges everywhere
      ********
    • @sted name anything besides Framer and Webflow?
      WP? Kirby? Headless anything? Name designers willing to go headless anything?
      ********
    • When you can sell $5k-10k Framer websites for startups no coding experience needed ...

    • My last websites coded for clients were using WP and Webflow

      Pain in the ass maintenance after

      WP is not secure, Webflow is shit for ecommerce
      ********
    • Figma will deliver presentation websites and folios like no other - 1 day websites possible no matter how spaghetti code you get
      ********
    • @mono was thinking to update folio on Figma Sites vs. WP

      Are you up to it too?
      ********
    • Yeah. I want to rebuild a site in figma. Learning figma seems like a lot more useful than the other web only options.monospaced
    • Sted, there are some website builders out there, but not like this. Learning figma is learning to use a new tool that is useful beyond site design.monospaced
