Congratulations on your launch @jornvandijk & the rest of the Framer team! I am a happy early adopter and excited to see what you will ship over the next few months 💯
We did use Framer sites to create the https://acapela.com/ website.
Overall happy with how it went, but we had a bunch of pretty annoying issues. It actually made me have second thoughts a few times if it was a good bet:
- it was not possible to create breakpoints for components, as a result, we had to create component variants and manually switch them for page breakpoints
- it was not possible to create breakpoints for text styles. As a result, we had to manually update font sizes and weights for every header on every breakpoint, after every change
- code components gave me a lot of headaches. I wanted to darken provided color of a button on the hover. Worked great in 'development' preview, but did break in 'production'. Turned out 'dev' gives you the raw value of color (eg. hex), while prod gives you the name of the CSS variable. Did lose way too much time to figure it out.
- pasting images usually moved them like 9000px out of the page instead of putting it in the layout layer I had selected, also pretty annoying.
And a bunch more. Overall we were using the beta, so I was quite fine with it. Wish you all the best! You're on a great track to be an amazing product for creating websites.
@pie6k We've already improved some of these points for our initial launch (for example, you'll now find that Text Styles have full-fledged breakpoint support) and have the rest in our internal issue tracker!
@pie6k hey Adam, you'll find that a lot of these have been fixed in the public release. We now support text style breakpoints, fixed a ton of bugs etc. Thanks for the encouragement and actually shipping a great site with the beta!

Congrats on the launch! I've "risked" to create our landing page for our upcoming Exomon NFT drop on Solana with Framer Sites with a tight deadline. This product never let me down & I've got outstanding support by the team (thx John!). I'm a big fan now! Will do the Polychain Monsters website with Framer too. 5/5 – would recommend.

Another level. The speed of publish, the magic of copy+paste, and the framer details = epic.
