Hey HN! Last summer I was struggling to get my Figma designs shipped - stuck waiting for dev bandwidth and trying to hand off every iteration. Got really frustrated and decided to do something about it.
Today we're launching a native integration between Builder.io and Lovable that lets designers directly convert Figma designs into production-ready apps. No code, no BS, just a working app you can iterate on.
How it works:
- Design in Figma (supports Auto-Layout)
- Export through Builder.io's plugin (2 modes: quick or pixel-perfect)
- Opens in Lovable where you can add functionality via prompts
- Connect Supabase for backend/auth/db if needed
- One click deploy to cloudflare
We've been testing this with early users and seeing designers ship entire apps solo in hours instead of weeks. One designer built and deployed a complete employee directory app from their Figma design in an afternoon.
Try it out: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/747985167520967365/bu...
Docs: https://www.builder.io/blog/lovable-builder
Would love feedback from fellow designers and builders. Especially interested in hearing from others who've dealt with design-dev handoff pains, and what parts of your workflow can this help with?
Built by builder.io and Lovable.dev teams. We're around to answer questions!
