Title:
I built a design system generator inside Figma Make. Here's the workflow.
The problem I kept running into: every new client project meant re-explaining the brand to every AI tool from scratch. Figma Make didn't know the colors. Cursor didn't know the tokens. Claude didn't know the rules. I was the shared memory — and I kept losing things.
So I built Design System Gen. Entirely inside Figma Make. Powered by Claude API.
The workflow:
Upload brand references → Claude API analyzes them across 8 dimensions (palette, mood, typography, composition, lighting, texture, motion, UI DNA) → structured data, not vibes → generates 11 files, each formatted for a specific tool in your stack.
figma-make.md → paste once, Figma Make knows your entire design system
design-system.css → all tokens as CSS custom properties
tokens.json → W3C format, imports directly into Figma Variables
starter.tsx → React starter with tokens already bound
.cursorrules → Cursor knows your system from root
Claude.md → Claude reads it automatically every session
+ 5 more for docs, LLMs, prompts, components
Every tool gets its own context file. All consistent with each other.
The part I'm most proud of: I'm a designer. I don't write code. The entire tool — UI, API integration, file generation logic — was built and shipped inside Figma Make. No external hosting. No separate codebase.
