What is Figma?

Figma is a collaborative interface design tool known for its user-friendly interface and real-time features. It's the industry standard for creating pixel-perfect designs, components, and prototypes that are later converted to actual websites or apps through coding.

What is React?

React is an open-source JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It uses a declarative, component-based architecture and the Virtual DOM to simplify UI creation and ensure reusable, efficient code.

Key Features: Why use Locofy to convert Figma to React code?

Locofy platform is built with builders in mind. Designers should be able to move quickly and confidently without back and forth with engineers to get the product looking exactly as envisioned. Here’s how Locofy enables the entire team to build and launch their product faster:

1. Design with ease and confidence

Locofy lets you bring your design to life. That means form fields, videos, and other components that actually work. Get a fully functional prototype running on React code, so that you can visualise exactly how interactions look and feel.

Our preview renders in seconds, so you can design with real-time feedback and visualise exactly how interactions look and feel. Nothing is left to imagination.

2. Get responsive designs in one click

LocoAI converts static layers into interactive elements like buttons, field inputs, and carousels.

By applying styling and layout to elements across media queries, Locofy makes your design responsive for all screen sizes.

You can get hover effects, pressed effects, and on click actions without having to create multiple versions of the same layer on Figma.

3. Accelerate your development time

Locofy empowers developers to create code 10X faster from design. Here's how:

Creating reusable components with props

LocoAI scans your design files and splits the code into reusable components with props, enabling you to quickly generate modular code.

Similarly styled elements are automatically detected and combined, giving you a cleaner CSS code.

Keep your designs and code in sync

You can make changes on the design and code simultaneously. With our smart GitHub code merge, you can easily resolve conflicts and changes, and keep your designs and code in sync with a single source of truth.

Available in Dev Mode

Locofy lets you switch from design to live, working code preview instantly within Figma's Dev Mode, making it easy for you to check the code and how it adapts to different screens.

4. Your projects are protected with enterprise-grade security

Locofy is ISO 27001 Certified and Soc2 Certified, addressing critical enterprise requirements for security and compliance. We also do not use customer data for training its large design models. Users retain full ownership of all generated code.

Finish with Locofy MCP: Extend Code with Vibe Coding

With Locofy MCP, you can easily clean up and fine-tune the generated code while adding enhanced interactivity to your components.

Incorporate logic, accessibility features, localisation, security, and more, so that your final code fully meets your requirements.

How to convert Figma to React Code?

Launch the Locofy plugin on Figma. Create a new project, and select the React framework.
Select a frame or a component in your design
Hit 'convert to code' to initiate the conversion
AI converts static design elements into modular, responsive React code
Use the 'Edit Mode' to review the generated code and make changes
Sync your project to Locofy Builder to review code structure, or sync and export your code.

What is the best way to convert a Figma design to React?

The best way to convert a Figma design to React is to use a plugin or tool. AI tools like Locofy to immediately convert your Figma design to React code, without the need for manual coding and conversion.

Is it possible to convert Figma to React automatically?

Yes, you may explore Figma plugins like Locofy to convert Figma to React automatically. These tools can generate a significant portion of the boilerplate code, but the output often requires manual refinement.

What are the pros and cons of using a Figma to React converter?

Pros: Significantly faster workflow, reduced manual effort, pixel-perfect accuracy, and a great starting point for development.

Cons: Generated code may not always be clean or production-ready, requires a well-structured Figma file, and can lack custom logic or complex interactions.

How do I prepare my Figma file for a successful conversion to React?

Proper organisation is key. This includes using Auto Layout, well-named layers and components, and a consistent design system with defined styles, colors, and typography.

Here is a design best practices guide on how to format your Figma designs for the best outcome.

Does the generated code work with popular styling libraries like Tailwind CSS or Styled Components?

Many modern conversion tools offer support for different styling approaches, including CSS, CSS Modules, Tailwind CSS, and CSS-in-JS libraries like Emotion and Styled Components.

How do I handle responsiveness and different screen sizes?

If you are using Locofy to convert Figma to React, Locofy automatically applies best design practices and optimises your Figma file's structure. It uses large design models to generate responsive code, often eliminating the need for you to design for multiple screen sizes manually.

How do I turn a Figma prototype into a functional React application?

While tools can generate the UI, adding functionality is still a manual step for developers. This involves implementing state management, handling events, and connecting to a back-end.

What is the "design system" approach in Figma to React?

A design system is a collection of reusable components and guidelines. By creating a robust design system in Figma, developers can map those components to their React counterparts, ensuring consistency and reusability across the application.

Here are the best design practices on how to optimise your Figma file to React.

How does Locofy ensure design-to-code consistency across our teams?

Locofy ensures design-to-code consistencies by generating a single source of truth from your Figma designs. Our platform allows you to:

Create a component library directly from your Figma components, ensuring every developer uses the same elements.
Enforce brand guidelines and styling rules automatically through the generated code.
Reduce the risk of "design drift" where the final product deviates from the original design. This ensures a consistent brand experience for your end users.
