Hi, All

Who uses Figma for designs?
It has the export API https://www.figma.com/developers/api
I guess, it would be super to export from it to B4X project layouts.

Q: no one tried ?

i don´t know one.

You need to build the solution by yourself.
Read the json, load dynamic layouts based on the json-Values.

I use figma for designs, but I always re-create the layouts manually. (I'm doing that right now :))
I found that the layout code thinks most controls are primitive graphic elements, e.g. a switch appears as a rounded rectangle and a circle. So not much use.

For certain elements, e.g. icons, logos etc, I export the info.

If you find an automated way to do this I would be very interested.

Check this


EDIT: Sorry, it's not a way to export, probably similar to what you're doing right now

I just touched this Figma, some project and found that the format is much detailed, so it's just an idea that we all in B4X community need such useful tool. It's important and interesting to create.
