A friendlier interface :)

Oct 15, 2024

Added

  • A few keyboard shortcuts (b and cmd+k)

  • Badge to show new components

Improved

  • Home page got a makeover

  • Login/signup flow

Plugin Launch

Oct 2, 2024

Feeling really proud to have been able to work with Framer to launch Blocs as a plugin for the official release of Framer Plugins, and to be a featured plugin in their Fall Event.

Added

  • Everything in the plugin except for the components themselves are brand new!

Removed

  • The sun has officially set on the Framer projects that we offered previously, and we will no longer be updating them or bringing out new versions. All components/features from the projects and more are currently available in the plugin.

Notes

  • We will continue to update the plugin monthly with new components as we were before

  • We're really excited about the future of the plugin, as we are able to extend the capabilities of Framer to a level we were never able to before with the framer projects. We hope you all feel the same way :)
