Thank you for partecipating to the early test.
Here's a photo of a baby elephant to show you my appreciation. I hope it makes your day a little better
Here's the whole point of this 👉🏻
Please fill the form. It will help me know what you think about the component.
01
What's in for me
You are using a test version of the component, with slightly non-optimized code and debug features that won't be THERE IN THE FINAL RELEASE. go play around with them and see how you feel about the component. also, receiving this file means that you'll have access to many things for free. more on that below
02
Can I use this in my live Framer site righ now?
Technically no, there's a safeguard in the code that only allows this to run on framer domain websites (.framer.app, .framer.website etc). You can tho use it in any trial website to test it as much as you want, create animations to share with others, and overall see if the component allows helps you achieve things otherwise impossible in framer
03
Am I getting only this remix file?
No, getting this file means that you're gonna also have priority free access to all the future release of the component, free access to the archive of animations built with fame that's gonna come soon, and you'll be able to use the component on an actual paid domain (your website) for free, forever.
ps: getting the free license isn't tied to having this remix file in particular. i have a notion file with the usernames of people i sent this, and all of you are gonna get a lifetime license key when the final version of the component will be released.
04
Can I share this file or the component with others?
Well, of course I can't prevent you from doing so, but consider this. soon enough, the first official version of the component will be released for everyone, and everyone will be able to use this on free framer domains. The reason i didn't open this for everyone already, is because i don't wanna flood the internet with a test version of a component that is still unpolished. so please, avoid sharing the component with others for now.
05
Where should I start
start from the second page of this remix file (/start-from-here) and try to build by yourself the animations i explain in the file.
06
What if I see a bug or a feature that doesn't work?
in that case, please report it to me. you can dm me on x or send an email to studio@webtales.it. also, if you have suggestions on how to make this system better, feel free to let me know. this is the whole point of you having this file.
07
Are there some known bugs?
Yes, turns out, responsive text splitting is pretty annoying to make work. so, if you resize the window and see the splitted text behaving in some weird ways, just reload the page. i'm actively working on these and i count to make this work in short time. Also, there's an re-rendering issue that prevents you from creating overrides inside the same fame component. this means that your animation for now has to be the same on every breakpoint. i'm working on this too, but for now, if you want different animations for the same component on different breakpoints, just duplicate the layer and use the "visible" property to hide or show the right animated elements in the right breakpoint. and i know i explained this in an incomprehensible way, so just look at the page /breakpoints-issue.
08
Are you planning on adding features?
Yes, I have 2 main things i'd like this component to have: a new system for creating timelines, more similar to how gsap works (where you can create new target elements for every keyframe) and mouse move events. that will allow users to create all sorts of mouse move animations, like images trail that follow the mouse, magnetic effects and so much more. but it's an animation paradigm that is completely different from the 2 that are currently present (time based | scrubbed), and implementing it would've added to the release time. Also, more text effects are coming, like scramble. but if you think i should focus on something else first, please let me know. i'd love to know what features you think would make a bigger impact.

Last but not least
Thank you again for being here helping me to shape and fix the component i've been working on for the past three months. now, go have fun 😎
