How to export Framer to HTML, step by step

Step 1 — publish your Framer site

The exporter reads your published site, not the editor. In Framer hit Publish and note the URL — either yoursite.framer.app/.framer.website or your custom domain. Make sure the pages you want are included in the sitemap (they are by default).

Step 2 — paste the URL into SiteFreeze

Open sitefreeze.com, paste the URL and hit Convert to HTML. SiteFreeze reads your sitemap and fetches every page — up to 120 pages per export — with live progress page by page.

Step 3 — check the free live preview

Before downloading anything you get a hosted preview of the frozen site. Click through pages, open the mobile menu, watch scroll animations, submit a test form — verify it's pixel-perfect. The preview is free and doesn't require an account.

Step 4 — download the .zip

A free account downloads the basic .zip (pages + runtime, media linked from Framer's CDN). Pro (€30 once, lifetime) unlocks the full offline export: every image, font, video, Lottie and Rive file bundled, service worker for offline use, and Mac & Windows preview launchers.

Step 5 — host it anywhere

Drag the folder into Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, Vercel or GitHub Pages (Pro can publish to GitHub in one click), or upload via classic FTP. Relative paths mean subdirectories work too. To check locally first, double-click preview-mac.command or preview-windows.bat.

Troubleshooting

• "Couldn't fetch that site" — make sure the site is published and the URL is the public one (with a sitemap), not a Framer editor link.
• Animations missing in the export — you likely used a scrape-based tool before; SiteFreeze preserves the runtime, so re-export with it.
• New CMS posts not showing — the export is a snapshot; publish in Framer, then re-export.

Try it on your site

Paste your published Framer URL in the box above — you get a free hosted live preview in about a minute, before creating an account or paying anything. Open SiteFreeze, or read the step-by-step guide.
