How I Built the FusionLabs Website ~ The Full Stack Breakdown
Framer is great. Honestly, for a lot of people it's the right call drag, drop, publish, done. I used it for a while too. But then I started wanting things. I wanted the site to auto-detect a visitor's browser language and serve them content in German, Arabic, Hindi, French whatever they're actually comfortable reading in. I wanted Sentry hooked in so I'd know the second something broke. I had plans for a client dashboard down the road. And every time I looked into doing any of this properly on Framer, the answer was either "not supported" or "upgrade your plan." At some point you do the math and realize you're paying more money for less control on a platform that wasn't built for what you're trying to do. I'm a developer. Next.js is where I actually live. So I rebuilt the whole thing. This post is a full breakdown of how fusionlabs.studio is built every tool, every decision, and why. If you're a founder, a business owner, or just someone evaluating whether to work with us, this is also a pretty honest look at how we build things.
