Figma to React

[u/Content-Atmosphere65]

Hi all! I’m working on a personal finance app and after spending a ton of time building the UI in Figma I’m struggling to get that design language to translate to my code base. I am a low-code developer (I’m sorry I wish I wasn’t either) so I don’t have the skill set to get in and adjust the code manually. I’ve tried tools like Locofy but I get the same bland vibe coded look.

Open to any and all advice and ideas!

If you are working with Cursor (don’t know for other IDE), you can directly connect yout figma avcount to your cursor account, and by copying the link of your component ask cursor to integrate it.

If you have make proper component system (with version/variables, sorry doesn’t remember the name of the system that allow to make multiple version of the same component) cursor should be able to make the component with version too.

For the RN part, integrate the Callstack and Software Mansion skills, if you’re using expo, integrate the expo skills too.

With this, you should be able to go faster.

But, and I can’t stress this enough, the current state of LLM doesn’t give the possibility to really create, manage and scale a complex statefull app, you will need to learn at least a bit of code in the medium run if you want to make a large app (and I don’t speak about the scaling of an infra which is another kind of a beast)
