How does it manage CSS variables and design tokens?

It extracts design tokens into a dedicated CSS variables file (figma-tokens.css), ensuring that colors, spacing, and typography remain consistent with the source design.

Does this skill handle images and icons automatically?

Yes, it automatically downloads assets from Figma, saves them to your local project directory, and replaces Figma URLs with local paths in the generated code.

How does the visual validation work?

The skill renders your new component in a local dev server and uses a browser tool to take a screenshot, comparing it to the original Figma design to fix any layout or styling bugs.

What are the prerequisites for using this skill?

You need the Figma MCP server configured, and your project should be using React and Tailwind CSS for the best results.

Can I use it with Figma Desktop to avoid API limits?

Yes, the skill is compatible with the figma-desktop MCP server, which allows you to process designs directly from your open desktop application.

Design Tools

Converts Figma screen flows into pixel-perfect, production-ready React components with Tailwind CSS and automated visual validation.

About

The Figma to React skill streamlines the handoff between design and development by automating the conversion of Figma designs into clean, functional React code. It extracts design tokens into CSS variables, downloads and optimizes assets with content-hash deduplication, and utilizes sub-agents to process individual screens in isolation. A standout feature is its visual validation workflow, which uses a developer browser to compare rendered components against original Figma screenshots, ensuring pixel-perfect accuracy while automatically correcting common AI generation artifacts in layout and positioning.
