Design-to-code is a familiar workflow. Designers create a prototype using a design tool, and developers convert it to code–a simplified version of the standard product development process. UXPin Merge turns this process upside down with a revolutionary code-to-design workflow. This article explains code to design and how it enhances the product development process with four

Just completed the final iteration of your prototype? Great! Let’s send the design to the development team, so they can translate it to code. Here the question pops up: is design to code really the best direction you can hope for? Actually, there’s a second model of working: pushing code to design and working with

Design systems cannot exist without a reusable component library. These design system components create workflow and UI consistency across design and development to minimize drift and streamline handoffs. But these UI components don’t simply appear. The design system team must first lay the foundation for these UI elements to exist, including design language (design principles)

Design handoffs are a tense time. Designers and engineers speak separate languages and work within different constraints, making communication and collaboration challenging. The first step to bridging this gap is defining what engineers need for development. Communicating these needs at the start of the design process will help designers prepare accordingly and streamline the design
