Description

Frontender functions as a Figma plugin designed to assist developers by translating Figma designs into front-end code. It operates like a personal junior developer, readily available to handle code conversion tasks directly within the Figma environment.

The tool is capable of processing various Figma file structures, including those without strict autolayout or organized layers, by intelligently determining order, hierarchy, and meaning. It possesses a deep understanding of both standard CSS and Tailwind CSS, including support for custom Tailwind configurations and the ability to use arbitrary values or find the closest configuration values, facilitating the creation of production-ready code.

Key Features

  • Figma to Code Conversion: Converts selected Figma layers into front-end code.
  • Multiple Code Outputs: Generates code in formats like CSS, CSS-in-JS, Tailwind, HTML with CSS, HTML with Tailwind, JSX with CSS-in-JS, JSX with Tailwind.
  • Framework Compatibility: Works with frameworks like Next, React (JSX), Vue, and Svelte (HTML).
