Hi everyone I need to build a Bricks site using a design made in Figma - what’s the best way to do this? I’ve seen there’s a plugin called UIChemy - has anyone used it? Is it any good? How much of the heavy lifting does it do? Or can anyone recommend another tool? Or do I just go ahaed and build from scratch using the Figma settings as a guide? I’m mainly trying to estimate the different times these methods would take so I can work out a quote… Thanks in advance Vik ---

UIChemy did a bad job converting for me… ---

None of the converters are any good, but it’s not their fault, it’s because of the way Figma works. Because it lacks the correct structural elements to properly convert in a way that doesn’t require an absolute ton of remediation, the end product takes longer to clean up than it would just to build out the Figma design in Bricks from scratch. ---

Yes that was the conclusion I came to - The client though I would be able to magically transfer it over somehow but I managed to explain to them…
