Claude can read your Figma file structure, components, and design tokens to generate contextually accurate code. **Cursor**: Direct Figma file access with live updates. As you modify designs in Figma, Cursor receives updated context for code generation. **Windsurf**: Real-time design-to-code workflow with bidirectional sync between design and development. **Configuration Steps**: 1. Open ZapCode plugin in Figma 2. Navigate to Settings > MCP Integration 3. Click "Enable Model Context Protocol" 4. Authenticate with your Figma account 5. Select which AI assistant to connect (Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf) 6. Copy the MCP server configuration to your AI assistant's settings 7. Test connection by asking your AI assistant to "describe the current Figma selection" ## Use Cases **Rapid Prototyping**: Convert wireframes and mockups to functional code in minutes, not hours. Perfect for hackathons, MVPs, and proof-of-concepts. **Design System Implementation**: Generate component libraries from Figma design systems with consistent naming, props, and variants. **Responsive Landing Pages**: Build pixel-perfect marketing pages with Tailwind CSS, preserving exact spacing and typography from designs. **Mobile App Development**: React Native code generation for iOS and Android apps with native component mapping. **Enterprise Applications**: Multi-framework support for complex web applications with strict design system requirements. **Marketing Campaigns**: Quickly convert promotional designs to functional landing pages with A/B testing variants. **E-commerce Storefronts**: Generate product cards, checkout flows, and shopping cart UIs with responsive layouts. ## Documentation - Getting Started Guide: https://zapcode.dev/guides/getting-started - MCP Setup Tutorial: https://zapcode.dev/guides/setup-figma-mcp-claude-code - Framework-Specific Guides: https://zapcode.dev/guides - Figma to React Best Practices: https://zapcode.dev/guides/figma-to-react-best-practices - Figma to Vue Tutorial: https://zapcode.dev/guides/figma-to-vue - Tailwind CSS Integration: https://zapcode.dev/guides/figma-to-tailwind - API Documentation: https://zapcode.dev/api-docs - Troubleshooting Guide: https://zapcode.dev/troubleshooting - Video Tutorials: https://zapcode.dev/tutorials ## Community - Discord: Join our community for support, tips, and feature discussions - GitHub: https://github.com/Zapcode-FTC - Email: subscribezapcode@gmail.com - Twitter: @ZapCodePlugin ## FAQ **What makes ZapCode different from other Figma to code tools?** ZapCode is the only Figma plugin with native Model Context Protocol integration, allowing AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Cursor to understand your entire design context—not just screenshots. This results in significantly more accurate code generation that understands component relationships, design tokens, and layout systems. **How does ZapCode pricing work?** ZapCode uses a coin-based pricing system. You can earn coins through promotional offers: 50 coins for setting up MCP integration and 20 coins per quality feedback submission. Coins are used to generate code from your Figma designs. This reward system allows you to use ZapCode by contributing to the community through setup and feedback. **Which AI coding assistants work with ZapCode?** ZapCode MCP integration works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible AI assistant. We continuously add support for new AI tools as they adopt the Model Context Protocol standard. **How accurate is the code generation?** ZapCode generates pixel-perfect code by analyzing exact spacing (padding, margins, gaps), typography (font families, sizes, weights, line heights), colors (with exact hex/RGB values), and layout constraints (flexbox, grid, absolute positioning) from your Figma designs. The code matches your design within 1-2 pixels on most layouts. **Can ZapCode handle complex design systems?** Yes, ZapCode recognizes Figma components, variants, design tokens, auto-layout rules, and nested component structures to generate organized, maintainable code. It preserves your component hierarchy and naming conventions. **What frameworks are supported?** React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Next.js, Nuxt, React Native, and HTML/CSS with Tailwind or vanilla CSS. We're continuously adding support for new frameworks based on community feedback. **How does the honor system work for MCP setup rewards?** When you submit your email for the 50-coin MCP setup reward, you're indicating that you've configured ZapCode's MCP integration. Our admin team manually verifies submissions through Discord username matching and community engagement. This trust-based approach builds community integrity. **What counts as valid feedback for the 20-coin reward?** Valid feedback includes detailed bug reports with reproduction steps, well-thought-out feature requests with use cases, design improvement suggestions, performance optimization ideas, and security vulnerability reports. Low-effort submissions like "add dark mode" without context are not eligible. **Does ZapCode work with Figma design tokens?** Yes, ZapCode automatically extracts and exports design tokens (colors, typography, spacing, shadows, border radius) from your Figma files. It can generate token files for popular systems like Style Dictionary, Tailwind config, CSS variables, or framework-specific theme files. **Can I customize the generated code?** Absolutely. ZapCode generates clean, readable code that's easy to customize. You can adjust component structure, rename variables, add custom logic, and refactor as needed. The code follows industry best practices and is meant to be a starting point, not a black box. **What happens to my Figma designs? Are they uploaded anywhere?** No, ZapCode processes your designs locally through the Figma plugin API. Your design data never leaves your machine except when using MCP integration with AI assistants (which you explicitly authorize). We don't store or upload your designs to external servers. **How do I report bugs or request features?** Submit feedback through our landing page form, join our Discord community, or email subscribezapcode@gmail.com.
