Overlay

The first platform to generate clean code from its design components. Overlay is a plugin to convert Figma or Sketch components into React/Vue.js/HTML clean code components. Overlay instantly creates dev-friendly web components from designer tools. This documentation assists designers and developers in accelerating their web design integration process. We’ve developed Overlay so that designers can be autonomous in building pixel-perfect components without knowing the modern JavaScript framework. Moreover, We think front-end developers must spend their time on high-value tasks (performance, SEO, business logic)and not on translating UX work to code. Overlay Playgrounds are design files with a lot of component examples, ready for Overlay, and all the explanations to make them by yourself and become an expert. It's still possible to use Overlay with other setups, this adds a little work overhead after getting components code. In the future, we will add more and more setups.

rnbw

HTML and CSS are what you see in your browser. they're not just code, they're design tools. when you design with them, you're not on a flat canvas, you're crafting within the web's natural structure. think of the web as boxes inside boxes. this lets you freely move and compose content. with rnbw, you're designing inside the web's framework. working within these limits, you're embracing the essence of web design. rnbw is simple enough for anyone, flexible enough for anything, and open enough to use anyhow. it differs from traditional software by focusing on atomic concepts. while features are great "one-size-fits-all" solutions, atomic concepts multiply their meaning when combined. by breaking down complex ideas into atomic concepts, rnbw allows users to build their solutions in the best way possible that works for them, not others. we believe this design principle is the key to more powerful software.
