The Problem: Framer Doesn't Export Code
Framer has no code export. Everything you build lives on their servers. You can't download it, move it, or own it. If you ever want to leave, you'd normally have to rebuild from scratch.
This hits freelancers handing off to clients, developers integrating Framer designs into existing codebases, and business owners tired of paying $10-100/month for hosting that should cost $0.
4 Ways to Get Your Framer Site as Code
Method 1: Manual View Source + Copy
FreeRight-click, View Source, copy everything. Sounds simple. Doesn't work.
Method 2: React Export Plugin
$50-250/moExports individual Framer components as React/TypeScript files. Requires npm, build tools, and React knowledge. Not a complete website -- you assemble it yourself.
Verdict: For React developers integrating components into an existing Next.js project. Not for static site export.
Method 3: NoCodeXport
$89/siteWeb tool that exports Framer sites to full-fidelity HTML, CSS & JS with all animations intact. Also supports Webflow, Wix, and WordPress, a real multi-platform advantage.
Verdict: Quality exports, but at $89/site it's 8x the price of the recommended option. Best if you need multi-platform support.
Method 4: Framer Export (Recommended)

The Landscape
Every Framer Exporter Tool in 2026
If you search "framer exporter" today, you'll find a graveyard of abandoned projects alongside a few survivors. Here's the honest state of the field as of March 2026.
Site2Code was a free tool posted on r/framer by u/Few_Adhesiveness_366 in mid-2025. Reddit users reported it missing up to 80% of pages, with assets still linked to Framer's CDN. As of February 2026, site2code.com returns an HTTP 530 error and is offline. Full Site2Code breakdown.
NoCodeXport ($89/site) is the most established option. It supports Framer, Webflow, Wix, and WordPress. Exports are full-fidelity with animations intact. The multi-platform support is a real advantage, but the $89 price tag adds up fast for agencies. u/Kysan721 on r/framer asked: "why pay $50/m for the react export plugin when nocodexport.com is free?" (NoCodeXport has since moved to paid plans.) Full NoCodeXport comparison.
React Export Plugin / Unframer (~$50/month) takes a different approach: it exports individual Framer components as React code rather than mirroring the full site. u/Vocel2137 on r/framer described using it to rebuild Framer sites in Next.js and host on Vercel, dropping monthly costs to near zero. The trade-off: you need developer skills to reassemble the pieces. Full React Export Plugin comparison.
Manual wget – u/pickledpiranha shared a wget-based approach on r/framer (comment) that downloads a Framer site via command line. Free, but requires significant manual cleanup: rewriting CDN URLs, fixing font paths, handling dynamic imports. Works for developers who don't mind spending an afternoon on it.
FramerExport ($14.99/site) is what this site runs. It mirrors the full Framer site via HTTP, downloads all assets locally, rewrites URLs, and packages everything as a ZIP. All animations, hover effects, and interactive components work because the original React + Framer Motion code is preserved. Try it here.
Under the Hood
What Framer Export Code Actually Looks Like
People searching "framer export code" want to know what they'll actually get. Here's the real folder structure from an exported Framer site:
your-site/
├── index.html ← Homepage (complete SSR'd HTML)
├── about/index.html ← Each page gets its own folder
├── blog/index.html
├── js/
│ ├── chunk-XXXXX.mjs ← React + Framer Motion runtime
│ ├── chunk-YYYYY.mjs ← Your page components
│ └── ... ← Dynamic imports preserved
├── images/
│ ├── hero_abc123.webp
│ └── team_def456.jpg
├── fonts/
│ ├── inter-regular.woff2
│ └── inter-bold.woff2
├── assets/
│ └── logo.svg
└── manifest.json ← Export metadataThe HTML is fully server-side rendered, so all text content is in the raw HTML, which is why search engines can index it. The JavaScript bundles are the original React and Framer Motion code, not a rebuild. This means every whileHover, whileInView, and scroll-triggered animation works identically to the live Framer site.
Images are downloaded from Framer's CDN and stored locally. Fonts (Google Fonts, Fontshare, or custom) are also downloaded so the site works completely offline. You can open index.html in a browser and see the full site without an internet connection.
What Happens After You Export?
Host for Free
Deploy to Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare Pages. $0/month vs Framer's $10-100.
Add Forms
Add contact forms with Formspree or Netlify Forms. No backend needed.
Can Framer AI Export Code?
Framer AI lets you generate a website from a text prompt. You describe what you want, and it builds pages with real components, animations, and responsive layouts. It's impressive for prototyping.
But Framer AI does not export code. The generated site lives on Framer's servers, just like any other Framer project. There's no "download as HTML" button, no code view you can copy, and no API to pull the source files. You can publish it to a .framer.website subdomain or a custom domain, but the files stay on Framer.
This means you're locked into Framer hosting ($10-100/month per site) even for AI-generated sites. If you want to self-host, move to Vercel, or hand the code to a developer, you need an external export tool.
How to export a Framer AI site: Publish your AI-generated site (it needs to be live at a URL). Then use FramerExport to mirror the published site, download all assets, and package everything as deployable code. The process is the same whether the site was built manually in Framer's editor or generated by Framer AI.
Frequently Asked Questions
Not natively. Framer has no built-in export. Use a third-party tool like Framer Export to export any published Framer site to clean HTML, CSS, and JS.
With Framer Export, yes. Scroll animations, hover effects, and transitions all still work. Manual copy-paste breaks them.
A ZIP file with HTML, CSS, JS, images, and fonts. Nothing gets stripped. Open index.html in any browser or deploy to any static host.
Yes. Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, and GitHub Pages all offer free hosting with custom domains and HTTPS. Your cost after export: $0/month.
What's Inside the Exported ZIP
A typical Framer export gives you HTML files per page, CSS, JavaScript with every animation intact, optimized WebP images, SVG icons, and self-hosted WOFF2 fonts. No build step required.
The exported code works in any browser. Deploy to any static host and it runs exactly as it did on Framer.
Before vs After
- On Framer: Hosted on Framer's servers, $10-100/month hosting, Framer controls uptime
- After export: Code stays intact in files you own, $0/month hosting on Vercel/Netlify/Cloudflare, you control everything
What's Preserved
Animations, responsive breakpoints, hover interactions, scroll-triggered effects, custom fonts, and optimized images all transfer. The exported site looks and behaves like the original.
What's NOT Included (Honest)
- Framer CMS dynamic content becomes a static snapshot. Pages render, but new CMS items won't appear automatically. See our CMS export guide for workarounds.
- Framer Forms need to be replaced with Formspree or Netlify Forms. Takes about 5 minutes.
- Framer Analytics should be replaced with Plausible or Umami. Both are privacy-friendly and free to self-host.
Everything else transfers: your design, your content, your SEO metadata. Kept intact in files you own.
