Figma to shadcn/ui plugin - new features now available!

Introducing Figma to shadcn/ui

We're excited to announce the release of Figma to shadcn/ui, a Figma plugin that transforms how teams implement design systems using shadcn/ui. Powered by Claude 3.5 Sonnet AI, this tool bridges the long-standing gap between design and development, making design system implementation faster and more reliable.

The Challenge We're Solving

For years, teams have struggled with the manual process of converting Figma designs into code. Developers spend countless hours interpreting designs, writing code, and maintaining consistency with design tokens. Meanwhile, designers face challenges ensuring their design system stays in sync with the codebase. Our plugin addresses these pain points head-on.

  • Open in v0.dev for immediate testing and customization
