Hello, nice to meet the community!

I need some starter instructions for building a plugin for exporting componentSets to custom JS/CSS with automation.




  1. Proper way of parsing nodes to html/css

    Since I couldn’t found an function for this, do i have to traverse the nodes’ tree manually for desired output; or setup a node project reprocessing JSON file got from figma REST API?

    Does anyone know any existing open projects could show one or two things for parsing nodes to html/css properly?




  2. Writing to local file with Figma API

    Is there a figma API that could directly write file to local machine? I mean text files such html/css.

    exportAsync seems only for svg/png/pdf.

    Browser API doesn’t seem to work, and copy from console.log is not quite a filnal solution 🙂

    Thanks!



Hi @Zhidi_Shang , did you find a solution for writing to a local file? Thanks.
