Question 6

Does Avocode has something like the Framer store of Packages?

Accepted Answer

Avocode comes with a suite of integrations (Notion, Jira, Confluence, Dropbox, Slack, VS Code, Atom, Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD, Photoshop, Illustrator, Medium and Niice). We also offer two free design UI kits (React Native UI kit and Guacamole UI kit for Sketch, PS, and XD). If you’d like to build things on top of our technology to parse and render design files, please check out this page. However, at the moment, Avocode doesn’t offer a marketplace of UI kits like the Framer Packages.

Question 7

How is Avocode different from the Webflow app?

Accepted Answer

Webflow enables you to design websites without having to code. The code it provides is auto-generated. When you wish to turn an existing Sketch or Photoshop design to code via Webflow, you have to re-create the design in Webflow. You cannot import a PSD or Sketch and turn it to code. Avocode is different. It’s a design collaboration tool that can turn layers from Sketch, Adobe XD, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Figma design files to code styles in CSS, Swift, Android, and React Native and prepare all image assets for export. Avocode is great to speed up coding of custom web and mobile projects. It does not create the HTML structure and JavaScript logic.

Question 8

Should UI designers know how to code?

Accepted Answer

UI design is complex enough to be a separate field outside of code. However, design and code are nowadays inevitably connected. A lot of design tools are adding elements and functions that were known in code for a long time - like smart components, constraints, or animation states. Therefore, designers don’t necessarily need to know to code, but it helps them to be better designers if they understand code mechanics and possibilities. If you’re a designer and you’re worried about how to prepare your UI designs for coders so they could work with them well, Avocode is exactly what you need. With Avocode, you no longer have to prepare specs or assets - developers can export everything on their own.
