Framer Landing Page (Design + Development)
Creating a landing page that not only looks beautiful but also converts visitors into customers requires a perfect blend of design and functionality. In this article, I'll share my approach to creating high-converting landing pages using Framer Motion and React.
Why Framer Motion?
Framer Motion is more than just an animation library. It's a powerful tool that helps create meaningful interactions that guide users through your content. Here's why I choose Framer Motion for landing pages:
- Smooth Animations: Create butter-smooth animations with minimal code
- Gesture Support: Add interactive elements that respond to user input
- Progressive Enhancement: Animations that work across all devices
- SEO Friendly: All animations are client-side, preserving SEO benefits
The Design Process
The key to a successful landing page lies in its design process:
-
Research & Strategy
- Understanding the target audience
- Analyzing competitor websites
- Defining key conversion goals
-
Wireframing
- Creating low-fidelity mockups
- Testing different layouts
- Optimizing for conversion
-
Visual Design
- Developing a cohesive color scheme
- Creating a responsive grid system
- Designing with accessibility in mind
Development Best Practices
When building with Framer Motion, consider these best practices:
const fadeIn = {
initial: { opacity: 0, y: 20 },
animate: { opacity: 1, y: 0 },
transition: { duration: 0.6 }
};
function HeroSection() {
return (
<motion.div
variants={fadeIn}
initial="initial"
animate="animate"
>
<h1>Welcome to the Future</h1>
</motion.div>
);
}
