React automatically updates the UI based on setting and changing state within the component. Is React Worth It? The reason React was created is because it’s easy to get lost in a bit of maze of DOM searches and updates with plain JavaScript. Design and Code in Framer X. 10 sections - 3 hours of video. Create powerful design and code components for your app and design system. Framer X is the only design tool to allows you to create code components that can be used in a React site. Developers can truly collaborate with designers in creating consistent and production-ready components. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Design simple views for each state in your application, and React will efficiently update and render just the right components when your data changes. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug. Framer X is the only design tool to allows you to create code components that can be used in a React site. Developers can truly collaborate with designers in.
The Exposition.
We've all been there. Looking at those beautiful animations on so many webpages and looking at our own CSS,sighing at the wire-frame we spent hours on, and googling how to center a div. And don't get us wrong. That is, the way you learn, and of course, Codepen.?
But front-ends are important. Some would argue as important as the core back-end of your webapp. After all, it's the part everyone sees, everyone watches, looks for mistakes, wows at it's beauty, snorts their derision at it's design. And this brings us to the Framer. The online, free prototyping tool for front-end designing and animation ..
.. without writing any code.
Uh, no, thankyou.
The Spells.
Thankfully(?), though, their Motion API for React is open-source as a NPM package, and you can combine it with your CSS to animate various components as you feel the need. (Hey, I said better animations, not lesser work.)
You'll need a React based project for this. So, Vue and Angular gang, there's another cap in Facebook's cap.
Framer React Course
Moving ahead, this isn't a Vue vs Angular vs React debate, that has been 'settled for good', multiple times to be even relevant anymore.
So, what exactly is Framer Motion API? Does it accomplish anything CSS can't?
So, isn't it useless? NO.
It's not what is done, but how quickly and easily it is done, if not the most efficiently is what counts. DO NOT quote us on this, this is how most APIs/frameworks are conceptualised.
And face it, if we went by those definitions, most new JavaScript frameworks will be rendered useless.(Most are.)
Create your react project.
Firstly install the npm package by heading over to terminal and
and press Enter.
Framer Motion API works in a very simple way. You import the motion component from the framer-motion npm package in the page or component file as per your need.
And then you can declare motion components instead of classic HTML/JSX components. like,
instead of
All these alternate components come with a lot of configurable values for animation, transformation, even hard-coded in-line CSS, and even GPU accelerated graphics.
The Magic.
Check this slightly accelerating toggle.
Or this scroll dependent animation..
Or this shape-shifting object for your brand logo.
Pretty neat, huh? The Example.tsx in the last sandbox has only 21 lines of code.
Now, that's concise.
Again, we aren't saying that the Framer online tool is bad. But again, we discuss primarily the coding. If someone can spin up breathtaking visuals with an acute knowledge of classical styling, kudos to them. But the API will allow a lot of developers to create something beautiful. Magical, even.
And at the end of the day, that's what it is all about.

This component allows you to encapsulate your entire React application or per component in an iFrame.
How to use:
Go check out the demo.
Or you can wrap it at the
render
call.Props:
head
head: PropTypes.node
The
head
prop is a dom node that gets inserted before the children of the frame. Note that this is injected into the body of frame (see the blog post for why). This has the benefit of being able to update and works for stylesheets.initialContent
initialContent: PropTypes.string
Defaults to
'<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body><div></div></body></html>'
The
initialContent
props is the initial html injected into frame. It is only injected once, but allows you to insert any html into the frame (e.g. a head tag, script tags, etc). Note that it does not update if you change the prop. Also at least one div is required in the body of the html, which we use to render the react dom into.mountTarget
mountTarget: PropTypes.string
The
mountTarget
props is a css selector (#target/.target) that specifies where in the initialContent
of the iframe, children will be mounted.React Framer Motion
contentDidMount and contentDidUpdate
contentDidMount: PropTypes.func
contentDidUpdate: PropTypes.func
contentDidMount
and contentDidUpdate
are conceptually equivalent tocomponentDidMount
and componentDidUpdate
, respectively. The reason these areneeded is because internally we call ReactDOM.render
which starts a new set oflifecycle calls. This set of lifecycle calls are sometimes triggered after thelifecycle of the parent component, so these callbacks provide a hook to knowwhen the frame contents are mounted and updated.Accessing the iframe's window and document
The iframe's
window
and document
may be accessed via the FrameContextConsumer.More info
