You might assume that showcasing your Instagram content on your website is a straightforward task, but as it turns out, it's far from easy. Unfortunately, the available solutions often come in the form of basic widgets that are outdated and visually unimpressive.

Our Framer Instagram Feed works by connected to your chosen source, either via your handle or a popular #hashtag. Once you have chosen the source, we have a few very basic steps that let you select a starting component that can be pasted into your Framer project.

After you've selected a source inside of FeedSpring, you can pick from various starting layouts. These layouts are pre-made react components built specifically for Framer and they can be pasted directly into your project. Since they are built for Framer, all the customisation can be managed via Framers own UI. Just navigate to the side panel to start customizing settings.

3. Customize and Publish your feed

Now that the feed is added to your project you can customise the settings to suit your desired outcome. You'll find its incredibly easy to customise and settings can be controlled on each breakpoint.
