🌐 Powered by LocoAI

- Locofy Lightning harnesses the power of LocoAI which uses our innovative Large Design Models (LDMs). This AI-driven engine is trained on millions of designs, enabling it to understand and convert designs with unprecedented accuracy and detail.

- LDM's deep learning capabilities mean it continuously improves, evolving with every design it processes. This ensures that Locofy Lightning stays at the forefront of design-to-code technology, offering you the most efficient, up-to-date conversion experience.

- With LDM, you get more than just code conversion. It intelligently identifies design patterns, suggests optimal UI components, and provides smart suggestions to enhance your designs, all while ensuring code is clean, responsive, and maintainable.

- Import your Design System & Custom components from CLI, GitHub & Storybook. LocoAI automatically maps your Custom Components to the equivalent Figma component and Locofy will optimally reuse your components pre filling the props while generating code.
