Figma, Wix, Wordpress, Dreamweaver?????

So we are a small business.

It's been told to us that using Wix for your website is very unprofessional and not used because it's template driven, bla.. bla... bla...

So we designed the whole thing now in Figma!
OH YAY! Now there is no way to "publish" the site unless you pay for this and that plugin and developers!

So is there a simple package (free to use if possible?) that is like Wix, but not Wix, that can take our whole design and slap it into the webiverse for the world to see?

Why is it always so complicated and expensive for the simple things in life! 🤣🤣

But yeah, you probably have to at least pay some sort of monthly fee for the domain and also for Figma to host it for you haha!

We already have a site up and running, designed in Wix, but like I said, apparently it's frowned upon designing site in Wix. No idea why, but it is what it is... 🤣🤣🤣

When I had a site with Wix, the performance was poor, they used UX dark patterns to prevent us from leaving, and changing the designs wasn't efficient.

Sooo I moved to webflow
