All these design tool to code plugins never actually work for anything realistic.

If you're so keen on not writing code, you're better off using a page builder.

Design tools are specialized to do one thing really well. You should always use the right tool for the job.

You should check it out, because its actually the other way around. Framer is basically React you can tinker with and use actual React components, it just happens to have a great UI on top that makes designing with no code seamless, and whatever you design is React behind the scenes.

Page builders in my experience aren't efficient to design, this on the other hand makes designing easier (as I have access to interactive components, real client data, etc).

Yes, 150MB is crazy.

Isn’t that just a basic node_modules folder?

Umm pretty sure my node_modules is 1GB+ xD

Lmao

It's normally slightly larger on average. I get you're joking, but the joke doesn't even make sense. A full build of LLVM + Clang is 15-20Gb, and yet, weirdly, IOS apps are not all that size.

Sorry, not joking at all. Since it’s a React app I thought it might literally be a node_modules folder.

Ah apologies, I thought it was just a "hoho isn't node_modules big" comment. Yeah, its output: 150Mb seems hyperbole, but afaics it's not far off an order of magnitude larger than a normal React app.
