This is something I wish could mash with Figma in some way, so Figma edits could be reflected back into the application in an intelligent way.

I really like this. I think some folks have correctly identified that it may be incorrectly used (my opinion) as a low-code editor. It very well could be however I see it living in a different space:

There has long been attempts at getting tools like Figma to produce assets that work with engineers. What I haven't seen until Codux is a tool that takes my work as an engineer and (mostly) correctly makes it editable and "design ready" for designers.

Thats the niche I see this living in, and is one I'd like to use it for, is to take the React components created for our design system and give designers the ability to run with it to create mock ups etc. This would cut alot of translation overhead and boilerplate significantly while keeping design and engineering on the same "page" because it reflects the changes correctly based on the source and available props, bringing things closer to usable.
