How to export a Framer hero section to React

Why export hero sections from Framer?

Hero sections set the tone for your entire site. They typically include large typography, background effects, animations, and responsive layouts that change significantly between desktop and mobile. Exporting these details to code takes time — but they're fast to prototype visually in Framer.

By exporting with Framer to AI, you get the exact visual result you designed without spending hours tweaking CSS. The animations, gradients, and layout are all preserved.

Design tips for export-ready hero sections

• Use Auto Layout. Framer's Auto Layout translates cleanly to flexbox in the generated code. Use it for your text stack, button groups, and overall hero layout.
• Create Desktop and Mobile variants. The hero is typically the section with the biggest layout change between breakpoints. Make sure both variants are designed.
• Add entrance animations. Fade-in, slide-up effects on headings and CTAs are preserved in the export and make the hero feel polished.
• Keep background effects as part of the component.Gradients, blurs, and patterns inside the component frame will be included in the generated package.

Exporting

Select your hero component, run Framer to AI, and click Copy Prompt. The export captures:

• All text content and typography styles
• Button styles, hover states, and click areas
• Background gradients and effects
• Entrance and scroll animations
• Desktop and Mobile variant switching

Integration example

import { HeroSection } from "./components/framer/HeroSection";

// On your homepage:
export default function Home() {
  return (
    <>
      <Navbar />
      <HeroSection
        variant="Desktop"
        heading="Ship faster with AI"
        ctaText="Get Started"
        ctaHref="/signup"
      />
      {/* rest of page */}
    </>
  );
}

Common customizations

• Dynamic heading text. Replace hardcoded text with props or CMS content.
• CTA click handlers. Connect buttons to your routing or signup flow.
• A/B testing. Use different heading or CTA text per experiment variant.
• Video backgrounds. If your hero has a video, add the video source as a prop after integration.

Your hero section is the first thing visitors see. Design it in Framer where you have full creative control, then export it to your codebase in seconds. No design fidelity lost.
