Ask HN: Why is design-to-code not working?

2 pointsby seestrawover 2 years ago
I’ve come across several products that automatically convert Figma designs into code. From what I see, they do a good job of generating React components and CSS from Figma designs.<p>It seems to be that these should be the standard way to make frontends, but it is not. Why is that? Am I missing something?<p>Example: Anima.app

In my experience, it&#x27;s the logic &amp; data flow that is not handled, and the more complicated part of frontend development. Layout &amp; design just a part of it. The best solution in my mind is something that is bi-directional, so that code can be synced and operational in the design tool
