For years, the design industry has talked about "design vs code" And tools (including Figma!) have forced a choice. But this is a false debate. Code isn't the opposite of design. Code is a material for design. So we're bringing code to the Figma canvas with Code Layers.

Design → code → canvas → feedback → repeat. The Figma MCP server is now bidirectional. GitHub Copilot users can pull design context into code and push working UI back to the Figma canvas, all from Visual Studio Code . No handoffs or context switching. Just flow.

comparison of o1 vs sonnet for converting a Figma design to code is the extra time and cost worth it?

Going from design to code is going from something built and usable to an unnecessary level of abstraction. It's like finishing a house then asking for the blueprints so someone else can rebuild it. Design is code. Code is design. Use a code-first canvas. Use MagicPath.

Now that AI has enabled designers to code, is "design in code" a thing? Can we drop Figma altogether? 👇

damn its so easy to go from design -> code with Figma MCP + Claude Code. literally just one click of a button, and the code is ready! still a lot of polishing to do, but this has helped us make development ~50% faster 😁

For years, everyone in design tooling worked on Figma to Code. The holy grail. But Figma has their own special data format. And LLMs know React well. Watch how our customers use the Magic Patterns MCP to go roundtrip: design <> code. Never been more clear to me this is future.

That gap between design and production? Closed. 🔁 GitHub Copilot, Visual Studio Code, and Figma now create a continuous loop. With the bidirectional Figma MCP server, Copilot users can: 🔹 Pull design context into code 🔹 Push working UI back to the canvas Connect your canvas and stay in the flow. 👇

Turn design into code with Claude Code + Figma. Through MCP, Claude sees your mockup at the data level—component hierarchies, design tokens, auto-layout rules—and translates it into production-ready code.

Holy cow. It’s finally working.. 🤯 1) 🤖 Import design from Figma (with the help of Loader) 2) Chat with the design in Streamlit 💬 3) 🎨 Design and code is returned Will open-source the codebase tomorrow (optimizing the code today.) (Live Demo ↓)

We've been ramping up usage of AI tools on our design team at Coinbase 🛡️ Two examples: 1. Write a text prompt and get a figma mockup as a starting point for your design 2. Click a button and turn any figma design into front-end code The front-end code it generates adheres to our design system, and is trained on our library of UIs Shout out to 🛡️ tali krakowsky apel🛡️ Blair McKee and the team pushing this forward.

A designer who can ship code is one of the most valuable hires in tech today. Here's my new episode with Felix Lee (CEO of ADPList) where he showed me how to use Claude Code and Figma MCP to go from: ✅ Figma → Code: Design to website in 15 min ✅ Code → Figma: App back to editable design Felix also demoed a few apps he's designed and built in Claude Code, including a 3D globe website and a landing page analyzer. Some takeaways from Felix: 1. Stop pasting screenshots into Claude Code. Instead, use Figma MCP to pull in all your assets, icons, and images automatically. 2. You can use the same MCP to convert code back into editable Figma layers to explore more variations. 3. An underrated way to build: Use FigJam to plan a flowchart of your app first, then paste the link into Claude Code with the MCP. 📌 Watch now: Thanks to our sponsors: Replit ⠕: Plan, design, and build with AI agents Linear: The AI agent platform for modern teams

Attachment issues (resolved) You can attach 30+ file types (docs, data, media, and code) directly in Make, so you can move beyond placeholders and design with real inputs from code to canvas.
