About.
Take Frame Away acts as a middleman between Framer's servers and your local drive, giving you true ownership of your layout code.
Code Extraction
The tool visits every page of your Framer website (via sitemap). It downloads the raw HTML and specifically targets the Made in Framer badge components to surgically remove them from the DOM.
Structure Rebuilding
Framer uses dynamic routing. We convert this into static folders.
Example: A page at /about becomes a folder named about containing an
index.html. This ensures your site works on any static
host like Netlify, Vercel, or GitHub Pages.
The Update Cycle
Important: Your downloaded site is a static snapshot. It is disconnected from the Framer editor.
If you update your design in Framer, your hosted site will not update automatically. You must follow this cycle:
- Publish changes in Framer.
- Resubmit the URL here.
- Download the new ZIP file.
- Re-deploy to your hosting provider.
The CDN Dependency
While you own the HTML layout, the images, videos, and scripts are still hosted on Framer's CDN.
- Pros: Fast loading, no bandwidth costs for you.
- Cons: If Framer deletes the original assets, your images might break. Ideally, keep your Framer subscription active or use the free plan as a CDN host.
Free Templates Only
This tool only works with personal Framer websites or FREE Framer templates.
If a template creator sells their template as a paid product, this tool
will not be able to extract it. Only templates that are freely available
on Framer's marketplace or personal projects on the free plan can be processed.

Won't work: Paid/premium templates or sites with custom domains
