I noticed that designers spend almost the same time and efforts developers put to design a webpage. And, developers pretty much rebuild the same design which was created by designers in figma.

I wanted to eradicate this redundancy hence started working on a visual editor that exports code.

On the contrary, I would like to position it as an app that helps developers to focus on business logic rather than rebuilding interfaces :)

You can say that about libraries, or any NIH code.

What type of code will it export?

Currently React and HTML. You will also be able to choose between Chakra UI, tailwindcss and more
