Converting Figma to Reactjs by using anima is quite difficult and time consuming

My team is under the impression that converting from Figma to React.js by using Anima is quite intensive, time-consuming, and tedious process.

It includes or it involves a lot of work to set conditions and constraints and similar other things.

So my team is wondering, would it not be better to just simply start working on React rather than getting into this conversion thing because we’re not sure if it saves time.

Are there any best practices or tricks that we are missing? Please help.

Hello!

Im very sorry to hear you are having issues with the workflow in Anima.
However, so we can help you better, may you please share:

  1. Your figma file
  2. A bit more details regarding all the issues you have found. (A video recording of your screen would be ideal)

You can send this to: support@animaapp.com

That way we can help you better! Thanks :slight_smile:

It depends on what it is that you are trying to do. The Figma plugin attempts to do a full conversion, including components and variants. If you have your own design system components, migrating to that is quite time consuming.

Our solution for that is our brand new VSCode extension: Frontier. It lets you use your own components and design system directly from VSC.
