Framer is a design agent that works directly on a canvas, generating and refining site changes in place while keeping each change editable. You can start from templates, sign up, or download the desktop app, then publish with hosting, CMS, analytics and SEO included. It also connects to outside agents like Terminal, Codex, Claude Code and Cursor.

Our take
Worth a look if you want to draft and adjust a site on a canvas rather than hand off designs to a developer. The pitch is that every agent change stays editable, so you can keep tweaking instead of starting over. Teams already using external coding agents may find the connection points useful. The catalogue record is thin on specifics, so check the docs before committing.
