How can we help players get better at what they do?
That’s the question at the heart of Wagmigg, a SaaS platform built to help esports players level up their performance. When Wagmigg approached me, they had a clear vision but needed an MVP to get started. The challenge? No developer. It was up to me to design and build a working product from scratch—and I decided to make it happen using Framer, even though it’s not exactly built for something this big.
The Process
Wagmigg needed a live, functional MVP that esports players could use to track their progress, improve their skills, and engage with performance data. The catch? Framer, while great for prototypes, isn’t ideal for a large SaaS application. I had to figure out how to push Framer’s limits—connecting complex CMS structures and creating an intuitive experience—without compromising on functionality or scalability.
The Process
1. Getting the Essentials Right: The first step was figuring out what mattered most to Wagmigg’s users. I worked with the team to identify the features that would make the biggest impact, like performance tracking, interactive dashboards, and clean data presentation.
2. Designing with Clarity: I kept the design minimal but engaging—focusing on easy navigation and a layout that esports players could quickly understand. Everything was designed to guide users toward what they needed without unnecessary distractions.
3. Building in Framer: This was the tricky part. Framer wasn’t designed for something this complex, but with creative problem-solving, I made it work:
Dynamic CMS Integrations: Built a system that handled live data and updates seamlessly.
Custom Interactions: Created interactive features like performance dashboards and filters.
Scalable Structure: Even with tool limitations, the MVP was designed to grow with Wagmigg’s user base.
4. Testing and Feedback: Once the MVP was live, I gathered feedback from Wagmigg and early users to refine the experience. It was all about iterating quickly to make sure the product worked in the real world.

In just two months, Wagmigg’s MVP helped the platform generate $5,000 in revenue. More importantly, it gave esports players a tool they could rely on to track and improve their performance. The success of the MVP validated Wagmigg’s concept and set the stage for future growth.
