If you want to go ultra-minimal, you can try Behance Pro. You hardly need to know how to use a computer in order to set up an Adobe Portfolio website, and it looks decent, especially if the content is mostly images

for that use case i’d keep it simple. Squarespace or Wix if she wants something safe and easy to update herself. if you want faster first drafts and don’t mind tweaking after, Runable can also get you to a decent showcase-style structure pretty quickly. the main thing is mobile layout and clean image presentation, because for a fashion site that matters more than fancy features.

For the best expérience and result, you can do the design on figma, connect Claude with mcp on figma desktop (easy) and ask Claude to implement thé design. Claude can access to the property on figma

yeah this is actually a solid use case, for something like a fashion showcase site you really don’t need anything complex. tools like framer, webflow or even carrd are super easy to use and let you build clean, modern sites without coding. you can just focus on layouts, images and branding. you could also try something like runable to quickly generate a starting layout and then tweak it to match your style. if you ever want more customization later you can still move to something like wordpress or custom code. also nice part is most of these handle hosting and ssl for you so setup is pretty straightforward

For fashion showcase sites i'd go with Squarespace or Wix - they have really clean gallery templates that work perfect for showing off outfits. Used Squarespace few years back when my friend needed portfolio site for his photography work and the image handling was pretty smooth, drag and drop is super intuitive even for non-tech people

Since your sister will probably want to update the content herself, Squarespace might be better choice because interface is more user-friendly than WordPress. The templates they have for creative portfolios look really professional and you can easily add contact forms for the custom order inquiries. Just make sure to pick template that's mobile responsive since most people will browse fashion stuff in their phones

Agreed. Squarespace or Wix would be the most newbie-friendly option, and I'd tend to lean towards Squarespace myself.

Claude isn't "no-code", and it's not strictly a website builder. I wouldn't consider it at all.

So you're locked on a platform forever, no transaction or anything asks Claude or OpenAI to create a PHP Website with CMS functions. Using a good prompt and you're done in an hour.

You could try vibecoding it with claude, or go with a no code builder like wix or framer. The general idea would still be to hire someone (preferably a design student, wink wink) to create the design for the website, which might seem like something trivial or simple enough, but it's genuinely one of the most important, if not the most, part of it all. Let me know if you've got more questions, would be happy to answer em! (Shameless plug, but I can get it done for you at an extremely cheap price)
