Polipo: The First Figma Compiler | Polipo Blog
When we explain what Polipo does, people often give it a label: "Polipo is a code generator." Technically, this is true—Polipo generates code—but this description places us in the same category as many other, fundamentally different tools.
We've often found ourselves explaining Polipo by comparison, highlighting how we stand apart from the myriad AI-powered Figma-to-code generators on the market. We stress that Polipo isn’t "just another code generator" to prevent developers from writing us off, without truly understanding the power behind our approach.
One of the most frequent questions we get is: "What is the quality of the generated code?" This is a valid question (answered in our FAQs), of course, but it often comes with an assumption.
When developers ask about "quality," they typically mean human-readable, maintainable code. They expect to read the generated code and modify it as they see fit. But Polipo challenges this expectation. With Polipo, there's simply no reason to edit the generated code manually.
