After a few weeks trying the different CMS-related features and types of binding, filtering, conditioning... in Framer, I have to say I am impressed by the quality of engineering behind this tool. Not saying it's perfect, but it's by far the best visual editor I have ever tried.
I am not talking about AI agents. I mean creating all the infrastructure and web of relations for a magazine or somewhat complex editorial type of project is a breeze once you get the hang of it.
—Tags/categories referencing.
—A content series collection to bind different entries within a same series, coverage o branded feature.
—Showing/hiding components when a CMS list is empty.
—Rendering different variants of a component based on conditions.
—Binding component variables to CMS fields with static or dynamic filtering.
—Maybe an "advanced CMS mode" would be great, to see two-way referencing in the DB (e.g. which news items are using this tag).
Using custom post types, custom blocks and custom fields in WordPress has been a nightmare for ages. Not to mention styling any custom element.
I do think Framer is a thing from another planet. I hope one day it will incorporate improvements like:
—better design system-management options
—an 'official' UI Kit (with curated community contributions) with dashboard widgets included.
— Official connectors to Baserow (also Dutch, btw), and a way to easily display the connected data with selected UI Kits (to build custom dashboards).
But overall, I really am in awe. Congrats to the team for the technical prowess. And especially to the Spanish members of @Framer, of course **
