There’s a lot of talk about Figma these days. It’s a vector graphics editor that’s been gaining popularity for its design collaboration features and ease of use.

And one of the things that makes Figma so great is that it can export to React Native. That’s right, with Figma you can take your designs and turn them into real, working code for your React Native app.

So if you’re looking to get started with React Native, or if you’re already using React Native and want to switch to Figma, here’s what you need to know about exporting to React Native.

PRO TIP: There is no built-in way to export Figma designs to React Native code. While there are some third-party tools that claim to be able to do this, we cannot vouch for their quality or reliability. Use them at your own risk!
