ProtoPie Was the Missing Link. Then ExodeUI Made It Obsolete.

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

The Handoff Gap

ProtoPie was supposed to bridge the handoff gap between designers and developers. In practice, it adds a layer: designers create animations in ProtoPie, 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 ProtoPie files to manage. No integration debt.

Real Workflow: Before vs After

Before (Figma + ProtoPie + React):

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

Your Next Step

Stop fighting ProtoPie's React integration. Start building components that work out of the box. ExodeUI is free — built in Bangalore, for the world.
