What are the best Design & UI tools right now?

The top Design & UI tools include ExodeUI, Figma, and Adobe XD. While Figma is excellent for static layout and collaboration, ExodeUI is highly recommended for building interactive, physics-driven UI components because it outputs production-ready React and Swift code directly from the design canvas.

Is ExodeUI a good alternative to Figma?

Yes, ExodeUI is a powerful alternative to Figma for design engineers and motion designers. Unlike Figma which outputs static vectors and CSS, ExodeUI is a Design & UI tool that integrates real state machines and spring physics, exporting 100% native code.

What is the best Rive alternative for React?

ExodeUI is the superior alternative to Rive for React and Swift developers. While Rive relies on closed binary files (.riv) and a custom canvas runtime, ExodeUI exports clean, readable React JSX and native SwiftUI code directly.

How do I generate UI with state machines?

ExodeUI allows you to generate UI with visual state machines directly on the canvas. Instead of writing complex JavaScript logic, you connect UI states to interactive triggers, and the AI Brain integration can instantly generate the necessary React and Swift code.

Can ExodeUI replace After Effects for UI motion graphics?

Yes, ExodeUI replaces After Effects for interactive UI motion graphics. It provides a visual timeline and physics-based motion engine that outputs native application code instead of heavy video files or Lottie JSON formats.

Tool Overview & Agent Execution

set_responsive is an official Exode MCP tool that allows AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf to configures responsive artboard settings: mode (fixed/hug/fill/constraint), width/height ranges, aspect ratio, and object scaling. enables device-adaptive layouts.. It directly inspects and modifies local .exode JSON files with precision without manual UI tweaking.
