April 22, 2024, 9:43pm 1 Suppose you have a single designed component in Figma (a Button) which is used by multiple development teams who have implemented the button independently to conform to their existing code bases. Is or will this be supported by Code Connect so a user in Figma Dev Mode could see the button’s React implementation for CodeBaseX and the other implementation for CodeBaseY? Like in the “React” dropdown (top right of purple box) or something?

Codegen is the process of generating code automatically, based on a defined set of rules or specifications. When we first set out to build Dev Mode, streamlining design implementation was our North Star. As we thought about how to incorporate codegen into the design-to-code process, we realized that codegen is not a hands-off replacement for translating design to code. Rather, it provides a jumping off point, so you don’t have to start from scratch every time.

Replit Vice President of Marketing and Design David Hoang talks about how AI is reshaping the future of product design and development, and the role it’s playing in the company’s team and products. When Apple debuted the iPhone in 2007, David Hoang was still early in his career, but he saw a window of opportunity in that transformational device. If the iPhone succeeded, the designers of its new interfaces would shape a new era of human-computer interaction.
