Developers, where can I design react components and export them??

I’m looking for a design tool, like figma, to create react components and I can just export the code to copy in my program.

Not sure if such a thing exists but it would be awesome if it did. Would save me all the coding 🥴

    I'd love to know if there's something that converts Figma components to high fidelity React components!

    I was developing an app in this area year less than a year ago so did a bit of research.

    The front-runners were pagedraw.io (YC-backed) but they shut down. My app also shut down because high fidelity conversion is quite tricky (!) and syncing between Figma and React is a challenge especially as everyone's repositories look ever-so-slightly different.

    ...having said this, keep me posted please if you find something!

    Basically you are looking for the holy grail regarding design 2 code tools. I myself haven't got any luck finding such tool. Have you looked into No-Code tools like Bubble? https://bubble.io/

    Check Framer Web. It might be useful
