Figma to Tailwind Design Kit

Convert Figma design tokens into Tailwind theme values so engineering and design use the same colors, spacing, typography, and radius rules.

Prerequisites

  • A Figma file with named variables or styles.
  • A Figma personal access token or exported token JSON.
  • A Tailwind project where theme values can be extended.
1

Export Figma tokens

  1. Confirm color, spacing, typography, and radius styles have stable names in Figma.
  2. Export token JSON or connect the CLI to the Figma file.
  3. Review token names before generating Tailwind config.
2

Run the converter

Setup snippet
npx @codersarts/figma-to-tailwind --input tokens.json --output tailwind.tokens.js
3

Merge with Tailwind

  1. Import generated tokens into tailwind.config.
  2. Map generated colors, font families, spacing, and border radius to theme.extend.
  3. Restart the dev server so Tailwind picks up the generated classes.

Verify components

Checklist
  • Compare buttons, cards, forms, and headings against Figma.
  • Check dark and light mode tokens if both are present.
  • Commit token output and document the regeneration command.
