SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires figma-code-connect, figma-generate-design, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The manual process of aligning UI code with Figma designs can be time-consuming and error-prone. This Skill automates the synchronization, streamlining the collaboration process between developers and designers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic Sync: Converts implemented UI code into Figma layers, components, and tokens.
  • Component Mapping: Facilitates the mapping of UI components from code to Figma elements.
  • Editable Layers: Preserves UI details like component names, variants, and tokens.
  • Use Case: When updating UI components in the codebase, automatically reflect these changes in the corresponding Figma design, ensuring developers and designers are always on the same page.

Quick Start

Use the code-to-figma skill to synchronize the UI components in the current project with the Figma file 'project-design.figma'.

Frequently Asked Questions about code-to-figma

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I synchronize UI code with Figma designs automatically?▼

To synchronize UI code with Figma, this Skill automates the conversion of codebase components into Figma layers, components, and design tokens. It requires parsing your codebase and integrating with the Figma API to map UI elements directly.

What is component mapping when syncing code to Figma?▼

Component mapping is the process of linking UI components from your codebase to corresponding Figma elements. This ensures that variants, component names, and design tokens are preserved as editable layers during the synchronization process.

How do I update Figma layers when UI components change in the codebase?▼

You can update Figma layers by running the synchronization process after modifying UI components in your codebase. The Skill automatically reflects these code changes in the corresponding Figma design file, keeping developers and designers aligned.

Do I need a Figma API integration to convert code to design layers?▼

Yes, a Figma API integration is required to convert code to design layers. The synchronization process relies on the Figma API to propagate tokens, create layers, and map components from your parsed codebase into the Figma environment.

What's the best way to handle design collaboration between developers and Figma?▼

The best way to handle design collaboration is to automate UI synchronization, eliminating manual alignment errors. By automatically propagating code updates to Figma as editable layers, both developers and designers stay on the same page.

Are there limitations to automatically generating Figma components from code?▼

Limitations depend on accurate codebase parsing and Figma API capabilities. While the Skill preserves UI details like variants and tokens, complex custom logic or unsupported code structures may require manual adjustments in Figma.
