0:03She's like, "Did you win $10,000?"0:06I'm like, I'm like, "Yeah, but don't 0:08tell anyone."0:10Hey, I'm Andy and I'm a framework 0:12creator. I run Framer University, which 0:16is mainly creating like [music]0:18resources components tutorials and 0:20helpful stuff for the framework 0:21community. I learned [music] a design in 0:24like a traditional school for like six 0:27months. always knew that I actually 0:29don't want to continue [music]0:30learning designing in school because I 0:32just want to build cool stuff and learn 0:34that way. I [music] came across frame in 0:352022 and I really enjoyed using it. I 0:39was building websites for myself. I was 0:41building websites for my, you know, for 0:43my friends. When I like doing something,0:45[music] when I enjoy doing something, I 0:47want to make money with that. So I 0:49thought about what could be a cool 0:51project that I can start is related to 0:53framer. was like maybe I could be the 0:55first one who, you know, starts creating 0:58in this like big frame university with a 1:00bunch of tutorials [music] and stuff and 1:02I could be the biggest. I started 1:04posting January 2023 1:07and I've been posting every single day 1:09ever since. [music] Every day I went 1:11online, I learned something and I 1:14repurposed that learning into an 1:17educational post on my account.1:20So people thought that I'm some I don't 1:23know expert or whatever teaching them 1:26but I was actually learning with them. I 1:29just enjoy that [music] I can break it 1:31down you know all the basics building a 1:34project when I was learning tools when I 1:36was a bit younger and stuff. I always 1:38enjoyed these these videos like I was 1:42also watching you [music] know videos 1:43like these. This is the notion content 1:46system. So the way it works is that we 1:48have content pieces as one uh short 1:52burst short video and then another one 1:54will be pixel [music] image loot 1:56effective framework.1:58>> This is just like for a week.1:59>> This is for a week. Yeah.2:00>> 20 2:02content pieces [music] for one week.2:04>> Yeah.2:04>> That's insane.2:05>> I just I just sit down and I and I don't 2:09stand up until I have the ideas.2:12>> 23 years old.2:13>> That's right. relocated from Hungary to 2:17Dubai.2:17>> Yeah, exactly.2:18>> So, how did you do it?2:20>> I saw opportunities, executed on them,2:23but I also just worked two main ways 2:25that is really easy to get started with 2:28either templates or client work. I 2:30usually say that clients are are better 2:32for like quick cash. On the other hand,2:34if you do templates and you publish it 2:36to the framework marketplace gets you 2:38views for completely free. It generates 2:40all the views for you. So, you don't 2:42even have to have a following. And if 2:43your template is good enough and it, you 2:45know, catches the attention and it's 2:47like great quality, it's a great offer 2:49and everything, people are going to be 2:51purchasing that, it really depends on 2:53what you enjoy doing. You can also try 2:54both. That's why Frame is special 2:56because watch a few tutorials on it,2:59jump in and build. And it's just so 3:02magical that things that you're 3:04building, the things that you're 3:05designing, hit publish, [music] and it's 3:07there. Luck is a big factor as well. I 3:10had to be scrolling on Twitter and see 3:13randomly a post about framer in 2022. If 3:16I don't see that, come across frame a 3:19little bit later when someone else 3:20already started frame university. For 3:22example, if I just sit down here and 3:24like watch Netflix, I'm not going to get 3:26lucky.3:27>> Okay, Nandi, we have a very special 3:29surprise for you.3:32>> Dangerous. Never approach the rear of 3:35the helicopter.3:38>> [music]3:44[music]3:52>> I'm Nandi and I'm a framework creator.
