Frequently asked questions
How do I import a design from Figma to Framer?
Install and run the official Figma to HTML with Framer plugin in Figma. Select the layers you want to move, copy them with the plugin, then paste them onto the Framer canvas. Run the plugin again whenever you want to import another selection.
Can I copy part of an existing website into Framer?
Yes. The Framer browser extension can copy sections from a live web page so you can paste them into a Framer project. Use this as a starting point, then review the layout, assets, and responsive behavior on the canvas.
Does a Figma import stay editable in Framer?
Yes. Imported layers arrive as editable elements on the Framer canvas. You can change text, images, layout, and styling after the import, then adapt the result to the structure and breakpoints used by your site in Framer.
Do I need to import an entire Figma page?
No. You can select a single layer, a group, or a larger section in Figma before running the plugin. Importing focused selections makes it easier to place and refine each part of the design in Framer.
What should I check after importing from Figma?
Check fonts, image assets, spacing, and responsive behavior after pasting the design. The import moves the design into Framer, but you should still confirm that the layout adapts correctly and matches the styles used across your site in Framer.
