figma-swiftui

Translate Figma designs into SwiftUI code, or bring SwiftUI views, screens, and design tokens into Figma. The guidance preserves iOS interface patterns, semantic colors, and SF Symbols names across both directions.

OriginalShow the original description

SwiftUI ↔ Figma translation. Use whenever the user mentions Swift, SwiftUI, iOS, iPhone, or iPad — in EITHER direction — translating a Figma design into SwiftUI (design → code), or pushing SwiftUI views / screens / tokens back into a Figma file (code → design). Triggers on phrases like 'implement this Figma design in SwiftUI', 'build this screen in Swift', 'push this SwiftUI view to Figma', 'mirror my Swift code in a Figma file', or whenever a Figma URL appears alongside `.swift` files / an `.xcodeproj`. Routes to a direction-specific reference doc; loads alongside `figma-use` for the code → design path.

Figma ↔ SwiftUI

Translation between Figma designs and SwiftUI code, both directions. This file is a router — actual guidance lives in the references below.

Pick the direction

DirectionTriggerReference
Design → codeUser wants SwiftUI in their iOS project from a Figma file/framereferences/design-to-code.md
Code → designUser wants to push SwiftUI views / screens / tokens into a Figma filereferences/code-to-design.md

If the request is ambiguous — a Figma URL and .swift files both present, no verb makes it clear — ask the user which direction before loading a reference.

Shared context (applies to both directions)

These points hold regardless of direction; the direction-specific references assume them.

  1. get_design_context is the read tool for Figma. Pass clientLanguages: "swift" and clientFrameworks: "swiftui" so the response is framed as Swift. URL → tool args: figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=:nodeId → use fileKey, replace - with : in nodeId. For figma.com/design/:fileKey/branch/:branchKey/:fileName, use branchKey as fileKey.
  2. The React+Tailwind in get_design_context output is a structural reference, not a literal source. It approximates the visual. Never transliterate position: absolute / pixel frames / mix-blend-mode stacks into SwiftUI or into Figma — the screenshot is the source of truth in both directions.
  3. iOS HIG semantic colors are tokens, not hex. var(--backgrounds/primary, …), var(--labels/secondary, …), var(--separators/non-opaque, …) etc. map to Color(.systemBackground), Color.secondary, Color(.separator) in SwiftUI, and to variables in a semantic collection in Figma. Keep the mapping; drop the literal RGBA.
  4. SF Symbols round-trip by name in both directions — never by codepoint. Design → code: get_design_context substitutes Figma's SF Symbol glyph runs back into <SFSymbol>{Image(systemName: "...")}</SFSymbol> wrappers in the response. Use those names verbatim. Code → design: call figma.util.getSfSymbolCharacter(name) inside use_figma to convert a symbol name to the matching character — never look up codepoints by hand.
  5. Recognize the underlying iOS pattern, not the literal node / view name. The same patterns recur in both directions: large title + back chevron + trailing action = NavigationStack chrome; bottom row of icon+label pairs = TabView; repeating same-height rows with leading/trailing chrome = List. Match those system patterns rather than rebuilding them from primitives.
  6. For code → design, use_figma is the API. Always load figma-use before any use_figma call. If the task involves building a full screen, also load figma-generate-design; if it involves building components or a design system, also load figma-generate-library.
