What is project optimization?

When you open an older project, there are times you might see a pop-up indicating that Framer will perform automatic optimization. This process helps open the project faster and more stably, without altering the design.

Framer continues to evolve into a more efficient engine, and projects created with previous versions may need adjustments to match those changes. That's when automatic optimization kicks in.

What optimization does

The optimization process refines areas like the following to increase the speed and responsiveness of your project.

• Improving project loading speed

• Enhancing working speed in the editing environment

• Removing heavy calculations (e.g., hash computations of SVG graphics)

This ensures better performance without affecting site design.

What happens during optimization?

When opening a specific project, a modal window might appear. This modal informs you that the project requires optimization.
Framer identifies and notifies you about the layers needing optimization for better performance. This process is executed automatically within Framer and is secure. If you click the Later button, the modal will reappear every time you open the project until optimization is completed.

Benefits of optimization

Once optimization is completed, you will immediately notice benefits like:

• Faster project loading times

• Smoother and more stable canvas editing

• More efficient work due to reduced computing demands

If you have any questions, feel free to contact the Framer support team.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. Is it necessary to optimize when a notification appears?

• No. If you click Later, it will reappear next time you open the project, giving you another chance to optimize. However, since you won't benefit from performance improvements until optimization is done, it is recommended to proceed with optimization when the notification appears.

Q. Does optimization affect other team members collaborating on the project?

• Yes. Once optimization is completed, the latest version of the project is saved, allowing team members to open the project in its improved performance state.

Q. Do I need to republish the site after optimization?

• No. Optimization is for performance purposes and does not directly affect the published version of the site.
