Convert Figma Designs to GUI Code (Tkinter, Kivy, PyQt5, Swing, C++)

This project automatically converts Figma designs into GUI code for multiple frameworks including Tkinter, Kivy, PyQt5, Java Swing, and C++ with Qt, helping developers save time and effort when building graphical user interfaces.

---

Project Goal

The project assists developers in converting ready-made Figma designs into executable GUI code without manual coding. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, this tool can significantly speed up the development process across multiple programming languages and frameworks.

How It Works

1. Enter the Design File ID from Figma: Provide the file ID of your design from the workspace.
2. Enter the Access Token: The access token is required to access the design for conversion.
3. Specify the Output File Path: Enter the directory path where you want to save the generated code files.
4. Analyze the Design: The script fetches the Figma design via API and extracts elements, colors, fonts, and layouts.
5. Generate Code for All Frameworks: The tool automatically generates GUI code for Tkinter, Kivy, PyQt5, Java Swing, and C++ with Qt.
6. Final Output: Multiple code files with ready-to-use GUI code are generated in the specified output directory.

Use Cases

This tool is useful for:

• Developers & Startups – Quickly prototyping GUI-based applications across multiple technologies
• Students & Learners – Understanding how GUI designs translate into different programming frameworks
• GUI Designers – Experimenting with different GUI frameworks without deep coding knowledge
• Cross-Platform Development – Generating UI code for multiple platforms from a single design

Installation & Setup

1. Install Python Dependencies:

pip install requests pillow

For C++ Output: Ensure you have Qt development tools installed

For Java Output: Ensure you have Java JDK installed

2. Run the Application:

python main.py

How to Use

1. Get Figma Credentials

Obtain Figma File ID:

• Go to your Figma design file
• Copy the file ID from the URL: https://www.figma.com/file/{FILE_ID}/your-design-name

Generate Access Token:

1. Go to Figma account settings
2. Navigate to "Personal Access Tokens" section
3. Generate a new token with read access
4. Copy the generated token

2. Run the Application

Launch the Application:

python main.py

Application Steps:

1. Enter Figma File ID - Paste your Figma file ID in the first input field

2. Enter Access Token - Paste your Figma personal access token in the second input field

3. Select Output Directory - Click the folder icon to choose where to save generated files

4. Generate Code - Click the "Submit" button to start the conversion process

3. Generated Files

Output Location:

• All files are saved in the build subdirectory of your chosen output path

Generated Files:

TK.py - Tkinter Python code

kivy_code.py - Kivy Python code

pyqt5.py - PyQt5 Python code

SwingUI.java - Java Swing code

cpp.cpp - C++ with Qt code

json.json - Raw Figma design data

image/ - Directory containing downloaded images from the design

Framework Details

Tkinter:

• Uses Canvas for precise element positioning

• Supports all basic GUI elements

• Maintains original design proportions

Kivy:

• FloatLayout for flexible positioning

• Canvas drawing for shapes

• Responsive design considerations

PyQt5:

• QWidget-based implementation

• QPainter for custom shapes

• StyleSheet support for styling

Java Swing:

• JFrame with absolute positioning

• Support for images and custom painting

• Standard Swing components

C++ with Qt:

• QApplication and QWidget based

• QLabel, QPushButton, QLineEdit components

• StyleSheet implementation for colors

Future Development Plans

• Enhanced support for complex layouts and responsive designs

• Additional GUI frameworks support (Flutter, React Native, etc.)

• Improved error handling and user feedback

• More customization options for generated code

• Batch processing for multiple designs

• Plugin system for extending functionality
