Nello — Free Portfolio Template for Framer

Nello is a free three-page portfolio template for Framer with no CMS: Home, Privacy Policy, and Legal Notice. Remix it when your entire pitch lives on one scroll and you only need legal shells for compliance, not a Work grid or contact route. Skip it if buyers expect separate project URLs or a CMS case study flow. Keven adds Projects and About while staying small. More free Framer templates are on the hub, or start with the one-page shortlist.

Who should remix Nello?

Nello is for independents who treat the homepage as the portfolio. Illustrators, motion designers, and product freelancers in the EU often need Privacy Policy and Legal Notice links in the footer before they send the site to corporate procurement. Nello ships those routes without forcing a multi-page creative sitemap you will not maintain.

Skip it if you are actively pitching enterprise clients who click Work in the nav and expect five case studies with metrics. They will bounce when only Home exists. Students who want a project index for internships should remix Keven or JORGE instead. Agencies selling retainers still need services and team pages this file deliberately omits.

What Nello looks like

The demo is minimal and airy: large type, sparse chrome, and a homepage that reads like a single gallery or manifesto rather than a dense agency site. It sits closer to a personal landing than to Notion-style documentation, which keeps attention on the work blocks you place on Home.

Interactions stay light so the page loads fast on mobile data when someone opens your link from a PDF proposal. The trade-off is depth. Anyone who needs dark mode toggles, theme switches, or dramatic scroll choreography may find the defaults too quiet unless they add components after remix.

Pages included in Nello

Three pages, named as Framer lists them:

• Home: entire portfolio narrative, project tiles or reels, and footer links to legal routes
• Privacy Policy: GDPR-friendly policy layout you can adapt with your processor list
• Legal Notice: imprint or legal notice page for EU publishing requirements

There is no Contact page, Work index, or 404 in the marketplace list. Wire inquiry buttons on Home to mailto, forms, or Calendly embeds. Add routes later if your client contract grows beyond a single scroll.

What is distinctive about Nello

• Legal pages bundled. Privacy Policy and Legal Notice save time for EU freelancers who cannot ship without them.
• True three-page minimalism. Not a one-pager pretending to be three: only Home carries creative content.
• Home-as-portfolio discipline. Forces curation instead of dumping every WIP into a grid.
• No CMS collections. Fastest path when assets already live in Figma exports or video loops on Home.
• Quiet personal branding defaults. Works for creatives who want typography and work to speak, not flashy chrome.

Responsive breakpoints and Framer hosting analytics come with the platform. They are not unique to Nello.

When to remix Nello, and when to skip

Remix Nello when you want one homepage you can finish tonight plus legal pages your EU clients expect in the footer.

Skip it when you need Projects or CMS case studies. That is Keven or JORGE. Skip it when you want a pure single URL with no legal routes at all. Ferio is the famous one-page alternative. Compare constraints on the one-page shortlist or return to free Framer templates on the hub.
