Plasmic

Plasmic animations just got a big upgrade! 🚀 You were already able to build animations in Studio, but now it’s much smoother to use! If you haven’t tried it yet, Plasmic animations let you build keyframe animations visually in the editor instead of manually writing CSS. You can build animations from scratch or start from presets, and apply them directly to UI elements or interactions with ease. What's new: • a cleaner, more intuitive animation editing UI • in-Studio animation previews • smoother workflow for tuning timing, effects, and state transitions • combine multiple animations • copy+paste animations from CSS code into Plasmic editor It's already live, give it a go in the studio! buff.ly/RSr82pR Read more: buff.ly/px3dI4s

Even no-code apps need a staging server! You can run two Plasmic website instances side by side: one for published content, and preview: true or tag: 'staging' for testing your work. Don't forget to disable `preview: true` in production—it exposes the latest changes to all visitors More about publishing flows in Plasmic: docs.plasmic.app/learn/publishi…

Most visual builders trap you in their component sandbox. Plasmic allows you to bring whatever is in your package.json! Just run npm install d3, wrap it with prop types for data arrays and colors, and register it. Suddenly, your designer is configuring D3 visualizations from the insertion menu like they're native blocks! Try now - docs.plasmic.app/learn/register…

Split-test starter, combined with traits in Plasmic, lets you show personalized content based on user attributes. Just spin up a server from the starter, then modify traits directly in the editor to show different components per user type!

Cool news! github.com/leerob/directo… AI rules and prompts for creating Plasmic-compatible code components are now officially a part of cursor.directory

Struggling to create dynamic and responsive websites without sacrificing performance? Plasmic's 'Visibility' feature lets you control which components render on different screens/platforms, same as in React! Boost site efficiency by hiding complex elements on mobile while shining on desktops. docs.plasmic.app/learn/visibili…

🕵️If you’ve been zooming in on our recent announcements screenshots like a detective at a crime scene, you might have spotted this little UI element sneaking into the frame. This is our new query condition builder! We designed it to give you granular control over server query behavior —letting you filter data right at the studio without needing to wire up a complex backend spaghetti monster. In an image below, we're doing something simple: matching a page slug to fetch specific content.

🎮 Have you ever learned a tool by playing instead of reading the docs? Try Plasmic levels -- we just added lots of updates and new levels! studio.plasmic.app/starters/game?… If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s the fastest way to really understand Plasmic: build things, make mistakes, find the cat, and ask him to return to comments, because it's time to eat!!

In our upcoming release, we plan to provide a set of default server queries you can use without spinning up your own server! Similar to existing back-end integrations, but without the roadtrip to Plasmic servers.

We’re blurring the line between low-code and "real" code (again) Here is a sneak peek into a feature we are working on now - Server Queries. You can now use our default functions or bring your own hostless functions and customize backend logic without leaving the Studio. ⚡️

The internal Slack channels at plasmic.app have basically turned into an AI research lab lately. It feels like every day there's a new "game-changer," but 90% of them are just garbage. That said, a few have actually survived the hype cycle and made it into our daily workflows: - Clawd Agent - Claude Opus 4.5 (our preferred LLM) - Wispr Flow - Claude Code (putting this separately from the rest, as it can be used not just as agentic IDE) - Cursor/Antigravity (we still struggle internally which one is better, Cursor is winning for now 😅) What are the AI tools that your team actually pays for and uses daily?
