In the developer's words
DESIGN SYSTEM Generate production-ready design systems in seconds.

★ WHAT YOU GET (FREE)
• 12/24-column responsive grid systems for mobile, tablet & desktop
• Full color palettes as Figma paint styles (one-click apply)
• Typography scales as Figma text styles with proper font loading
• Spacing systems with visual scale reference
• Design audit — scan your file for inconsistencies
• Support for 7 frameworks + fully custom configuration
★ SUPPORTED FRAMEWORKS
