From Figma to Pixel-Perfect Code
Turning beautiful Figma designs into responsive, accessible code is one of my specialties. It’s about precision, attention to detail, and knowing how to bridge design and development seamlessly.
✅ Match design to the pixel
✅ Handle all breakpoints
✅ Responsive, semantic HTML/CSS
✅ Maintain design consistency
🧱 The Process I Follow
- Understand the Design Intent: I don’t just code what I see — I try to understand the user flow, hierarchy, and purpose.
- Exporting Assets Properly: I work closely with designers or use Figma’s export tools to grab the right SVGs, icons, and illustrations.
- Typography & Spacing Scales: Consistent
rem-based spacing and type scales ensure scalability. - Use Variables and Design Tokens: If working in a design system, I replicate colors, fonts, and sizes via Tailwind config or CSS variables.
- Responsive First: I test layouts on different devices and screen sizes from day one — not as an afterthought.
💡 Tips for Figma-to-Code Handoff
- Use Figma's built-in Inspect Panel (for devs) — it shows all spacing, colors, fonts.
- Double-check line height and letter spacing — these are often missed.
- Watch out for auto-layouts and constraints that hint how a section should behave responsively.
- If collaborating: leave Figma comments for designers if something doesn’t translate well to code.
🔍 Pixel Perfection Tools
These help me compare code to design in-browser:
- Figma to Code
- PixelSnap
- PerfectPixel (Chrome extension)
⚙️ Tech I Use
- Tailwind CSS for utility-first design implementation
- React / Vite for structured components and fast dev
- Heroicons / Iconify for consistent iconography
- Prettier + ESLint to maintain code style and structure
