Start adding small instructions to your components – new users will thank you.

If you’ve ever used one of my navigation components, I have a question.

The old Marketplace requirements demanded that everything be controlled via variables. That’s why I invested a lot of time building a system that lets you do exactly that. The problem is: sometimes there are 60 variables, the panel gets insanely long, and for users who want to dive into the components, connected variables can get in the way.

But the new Marketplace doesn’t require that anymore.

What’s your feedback? Was this variable-based approach helpful, and should I continue with it, or move on without it and make things more flexible?

I failed the Framer Challenge... Unfortunately, I haven’t reached my goal of 9K.

BUT. it still feels like a massive win!

I attended a Framer event in Berlin & met awesome people, won the 10K Hackathon afterward, got 4 new client projects over the last weeks, grew my X audience by 400 followers (+500 on the Framer community), and still exceeded my last season’s revenue by 10%.

And that’s why I feel more than grateful for the last months. Framer has given me so much as a creator – another perspective in life. Without it, I don’t think I ever would have taken the step into freelancing. You will see me in the next season.

Thanks y’all for following along 🫶
