The Figma + Lottie Pipeline Is Dead. Here's the Indian Alternative.

Three tools, three subscriptions, three learning curves. ExodeUI replaces the Figma + Lottie + React stack with one seamless workflow. Built in Bangalore, for the world.

Real Workflow: Before vs After

Before (Figma + Lottie + React):

  1. Design in Figma
  2. Export assets
  3. Import to Lottie
  4. Animate in Lottie
  5. Export JSON
  6. Add Lottie 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.

The Figma Problem

Figma is exceptional for static design. But the moment you need interactivity — hover states, transitions, animations — you need Lottie (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 Lottie required.

The Handoff Gap

Lottie was supposed to bridge the handoff gap between designers and developers. In practice, it adds a layer: designers create animations in Lottie, export them, and developers still need to integrate them manually.

ExodeUI closes the gap entirely. The designer builds the component with behavior in the visual editor. The developer receives a component that works. No Lottie files to manage. No integration debt.

Ready to Make the Switch?

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