From Figma to Code - Using MCP Servers and Agentic AI for UI/UX Development
This article explores how modern UI/UX development is evolving from manual design-to-code handoffs to automated workflows by combining Figma, Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, and agentic AI tools. It explains what MCP servers and AI agents are, how they integrate with Figma’s Dev Mode and Code Connect to provide rich design context, and demonstrates how tools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor can consume that context to generate production-ready code directly from Figma designs, significantly reducing development time and improving design fidelity.
