Chrome extension demo

Using the library

// npm install @builder.io/html-to-figma
import { htmlToFigma } from '@builder.io/html-to-figma';
const layers = htmlToFigma(document.body)
// E.g. send these to the REST API, or generate a .figma.json file that can be uploaded through the Figma plugin

Limitations

Importing HTML layers to Figma is a best-effort process. Even getting 90% there can save you a ton of time, only having to clean up a few things.

A few known limitations:

  • not all element types are supported (e.g. iframe, pseudoelements)
  • not all CSS properties are supported or fully supported
  • not all types of media are supported (video, animated gifs, etc)
  • all fonts have to be uploaded to Figma or a best effort fallback will be used

If you find any issues or have feedback at all please make an issue
