Show HN: Makers.so – A website builder inside Figma

I have my portfolio on Squarespace as well. Once you start tweaking the template, you hit walls real quick. For most use cases it's not a problem, but for us designers unpolished details harm our reputation.

Another thing I find annoying is paying $16/mo for a site that I update maybe twice a year.

It's a famous problems for all designers we literally spend FIVE YEARS building new portfolio, because we want it "perfect", while the current one is terribly outdated and we hate since week 2 from launch :-) Makers.so could be an answer, it reminds me of Framer Sites which has similar value proposition.

This! This is exactly why I built makers.so.

Framer is an amazing tool. But if you are in the Figma ecosystem, it's boring to duplicate your work on a different tool. Same for Webflow. I'm trying to make life easier for Figma users.

Happy to help you get started with makers. Anything you need, just let me know :)

I meant Framer Sites - their new product, currently in (private?) beta. It’s exactly the same as your product. But of course Figma has much bigger user base and it’s good there’s something directly in Figma.
