Event
Breakpoint
Responsive
A specific screen width where your design adapts to a different layout, ensuring your site looks good on all devices from phones to large monitors. Strategic breakpoint choices prevent awkward in-between states where content becomes cramped or overly stretched. Framer's breakpoint system lets you customize layouts at each size while maintaining a single source of truth for your design.
Canonical URL
SEO
An HTML element that tells search engines which URL is the ‘official’ version of a page when duplicate content exists at multiple addresses. This prevents SEO dilution from copied content, URL parameters, or www/non-www variations. Framer automatically generates canonical tags, and you can customize them in page settings for specific SEO requirements. See Setting up a custom canonical URL in Framer.
Container
Layout
A parent element that holds and organizes child elements, defining boundaries for layout and positioning. Containers with maximum widths prevent content from becoming too wide on large screens while allowing full-width backgrounds. Framer's containers support auto layout, padding, and responsive size controls for flexible layouts.
Event Tracking
Analytics
Recording specific user interactions to measure engagement and understand behavior patterns beyond basic pageviews. Track meaningful events like button clicks, video plays, form starts, and scroll milestones. Framer Metrics includes event tracking for comprehensive behavior analysis.
Line Height
Typography
The vertical space allocated to each line of text, affecting readability and overall text block appearance. Proper line height prevents cramped or overly loose text—typically 1.4-1.6 for body copy. Adjust line height proportionally with font size for consistent rhythm.
Pointer Events
Interaction
A CSS property controlling whether an element responds to mouse and touch interactions, useful for making elements click-through or non-interactive. Disable pointer events for decorative overlays that shouldn’t block underlying interactions. Be cautious—removing pointer events can create accessibility issues.
