Design in Figma, Animate in GSAP? Nah. Do It All in ExodeUI.

The dream workflow: design in Figma, animate with GSAP, code in React. Sounds great until you actually try to maintain it. ExodeUI collapses this into one tool — designed and built in India.

The Figma Problem

Figma is exceptional for static design. But the moment you need interactivity — hover states, transitions, animations — you need GSAP (or similar) to fill the gap. This creates a fragmented workflow where design lives in one tool and behavior lives in another.

ExodeUI eliminates this fragmentation. Your Figma designs import directly, and behavior is added visually through state machines — no GSAP required.

From Static to Living

Designers export from Figma. Developers open the export, add GSAP for animations, wire up state management, and hope nothing breaks. This process repeats for every design change.

ExodeUI's Figma plugin exports designs directly into the visual editor where you add states, transitions, and logic. The output is a production-ready component that needs no GSAP wrapper, no manual integration, no state management wiring.

Real Workflow: Before vs After

Before (Figma + GSAP + React):

  1. Design in Figma
  2. Export assets
  3. Import to GSAP
  4. Animate in GSAP
  5. Export JSON
  6. Add GSAP runtime to React app
  7. Write wrapper component
  8. Sync state manually

After (Figma + ExodeUI):

  1. Design in Figma
  2. Export to ExodeUI
  3. Add states and transitions visually
  4. Export React component

That's it. 4 steps instead of 8.

Ready to Make the Switch?

ExodeUI is free to start. No credit card required. If you're an Indian team currently paying for GSAP and tired of the complexity, try ExodeUI for your next component. Start building at app.exodeui.com
