One of the most common practical questions: “Can I use Framer on Windows or do I need a Mac?” The good news: Framer is a web-based tool, and modern workflows are largely OS-agnostic. Here’s what you need to know.

Framer in the Browser

The primary Framer experience runs in the browser, which means:

• Windows, macOS, and many Linux setups can use Framer.

• All you really need is a modern browser and stable internet.

• Collaborators can join from different devices without friction.

Performance Considerations

Regardless of OS, Framer benefits from:

• Enough RAM to handle larger projects comfortably.

• A decent GPU for smooth canvas interactions.

• Good monitors for layout and typography work.

Team Compatibility

Because Framer is not locked to a specific OS, you can:

• Run hybrid teams with Mac-based designers and Windows-based developers.

• Use it in corporate IT environments where Macs aren’t standard.

Conclusion

Framer works well across Windows and Mac. For most teams, the choice of OS comes down to personal preference and company policy—not tool constraints. That flexibility makes adoption easier across diverse organizations.
