Framer Marketplace Changes Spark Creator Controversies

A Framer template creator documents ten recurring controversies around the Framer marketplace from 2023–2026, recounting personal experience selling templates since April 2023 and describing platform changes that affected discoverability and creator workflows. Key moments include the August 2023 release of an HTML-to-Framer Chrome extension, a 2024 marketplace redesign that removed the 'New' section and search, lengthy manual template review processes, perceived favoritism toward top creators, and Framer's 2026 decision to open the marketplace to self-published templates without prior review. The author urges creators to provide feedback to Framer, to focus on audience-building and niche products, and to treat marketplace upheavals as cyclical rather than terminal.

• Article author Danny Sapio reports selling his first Framer template on April 7, 2023 and now has seven templates on Framer.
• In August 2023 Framer released an HTML-to-Framer Chrome extension that allowed copying website sections into Framer as editable layers.
• A 2024 Framer marketplace update removed the 'New' section and the search bar, which creators say hurt template discoverability.

Fimo Launches Autonomous Websites, Making AI Code Editable and Self-Improving

Retry-Safe Strapi Webhook Receiver Tutorial

A technical tutorial showing how to build a retry-safe webhook receiver for Strapi using Node/Express. The guide demonstrates authenticating webhooks with a shared secret header, deriving a stable idempotency key from event data (event, model, entry id, updatedAt) using SHA-256, acknowledging Strapi immediately (202) and processing asynchronously with exponential backoff and up to four attempts, and recording permanently failed events into a dead_letters table. The example uses better-sqlite3/SQLite for a single-instance demo and recommends Postgres/Redis and cleanup/ replay strategies for production.

• The article provides a runnable Express-based webhook receiver example for Strapi that implements idempotency keys, exponential backoff retries, and a dead-letter table.
• Idempotency keys are derived from the combination of event, model, entry.id, and entry.updatedAt and hashed with SHA-256.
• The example acknowledges Strapi immediately with HTTP 202 after durably recording the idempotency key, then retries downstream sync up to MAX_ATTEMPTS (4) with exponential backoff before inserting failures into dead_letters.
