Figma-to-Code Skill

When to Activate

• A designer works in Figma and you need design tokens in code
• Design and code are drifting out of sync (different colors, spacing)
• Setting up an automated token sync pipeline
• Translating a Figma component into React for the first time
• Establishing handoff conventions between design and engineering

The Core Problem

Without a sync pipeline:

• Designer changes --blue-600 to #2563eb in Figma
• Developer doesn't know
• Production stays at #3b82f6
• Design and code drift apart over weeks
