Summary
Brand NEW Lovable x Figma Integration for Building Professional UI
In this informative tutorial, Brock Mesarich demonstrates the powerful new integration between Lovable AI and Figma that revolutionizes UI development. This English-language video showcases how users can now directly import Figma designs into Lovable projects, streamlining the process of creating professional-looking applications.
The video begins by highlighting Lovable's capabilities as a platform that enables users to build software with AI in minutes. Brock explains how this new integration expands on his previously shared UI component hack by allowing entire app designs to be imported from Figma into Lovable projects.
Using a furniture company website template as an example, Brock walks viewers through the step-by-step process. He demonstrates how to install the Builder plugin for Figma, select the desired components with Auto layout, and export the design as code. The process converts Figma designs into functional code that can be seamlessly imported into Lovable projects.
Brock clarifies that this new integration complements rather than replaces his previous 24.Dev component hack. While Figma excels at creating complete website frames, the component hack remains valuable for importing specific UI elements. He emphasizes how these tools work well together to enhance the app-building experience in Lovable.
The video provides a real-time demonstration of the import process, showing how the furniture website template maintains its professional appearance when transferred to Lovable. Brock notes that while the visual elements transfer perfectly, developers will still need to implement functionality for buttons and interactive elements within Lovable.
As an early access preview, Brock mentions that the integration may have some imperfections that the Lovable team is actively working to improve. Despite this, the integration represents a significant advancement in AI-powered app development, allowing users to create visually stunning applications more efficiently than ever before.
For anyone looking to build professional-quality applications using AI, this Lovable x Figma integration offers a powerful solution that combines design flexibility with AI-powered development capabilities.

lovable a platform that allows you to
0:01
build software with AI in minutes this
0:04
brand new feature helps you build
0:07
amazing looking apps that actually look
0:09
and feel professional using figma if you
0:11
saw my last video I discussed a hack
0:14
that helps you copy user interface
0:16
components into your projects well this
0:18
new feature helps you build entire apps
0:20
using figma and import them directly
0:22
into your lovable projects in this video
0:24
I'm going to show you how to do that
0:26
this should make your app building
0:28
process much simpler Imagine This you
0:30
have an amazing looking design youve
0:32
created in figma and you can directly
0:34
import it into lovable now you can edit
0:36
your app using AI with lovable already
0:39
having a full template that was made for
0:41
you okay let's get into it all right so
0:43
first things first I'm inside of figma
0:45
here if you do not know what figma is
0:46
figma is a platform that allows you to
0:48
build amazing looking like user
0:50
interfaces or websites and allows you to
0:53
customize however you would like you
0:54
could use a lot of you could find
0:55
different templates on here and
0:57
essentially just like paste those into
0:59
your applications to use that as kind of
1:00
the infrastructure for your either web
1:02
application or your website so I found
1:04
this one I like so this is for a
1:06
furniture company and as you can see we
1:08
have these different pages so this is an
1:10
entire website right with checkout we
1:11
have a contact form a Blog Page all this
1:14
stuff what I'm going to do is I'm going
1:15
to copy over this homepage and convert
1:17
this into code and then import it into a
1:19
lovable project and I'm going to do that
1:21
now so first of all what you need to do
1:23
is you need to come over to builder.
1:25
that the link for this will be in the
1:27
description essentially sign up with
1:28
this and you need to download download a
1:30
plugin so go to the app and then what
1:32
you're going to do is you're going to
1:33
come over and click get the figma plugin
1:36
basically once you have this connected
1:37
to your figma all you need to do is come
1:40
back over to your figma click on the
1:42
exact like components or page that you
1:44
want to copy over into lovable for this
1:46
I want it to just to be the homepage so
1:48
essentially it's really important that
1:50
you come over and click Auto layout so
1:51
that way it will be laid out correctly
1:54
and then next thing that we want to do
1:55
is come down here and click on this
1:57
plugin builder. so click on on our
2:00
plug-in here that we just downloaded and
2:01
then what we are going to do is we're
2:03
going to leave this on easy mode for
2:05
export make sure that you have the
2:07
correct page that you want to copy over
2:09
to lovable and we're going to export
2:11
this to code so essentially this is
2:12
converting this design on figma into
2:14
code and then after this I'll show you
2:16
how you could easily import this into
2:18
your lovable application natively
2:20
through figma here all right and so what
2:22
what you'll see now is you will see the
2:24
layouts you'll get two options here and
2:26
we need to make select the layout option
2:29
that looks
2:30
better and we think would be better to
2:31
import The Lovable so let me look
2:33
through these real
2:36
quick so as I'm taking look through
2:38
these this one looks good however it
2:40
looks like up here there's some error
2:41
where it's like it's like the logo is
2:44
not showing properly and so on this one
2:47
this one looks
2:49
good looks great okay so I'm going to go
2:51
ahead and move forward with this one so
2:53
click on this one and then next up what
2:55
we need to do is Click open in lovable
2:57
it'll begin now exporting this over to
2:59
our lovable project and then we could
3:01
then begin editing this just like we
3:03
would with any lovable project let me
3:04
give it a second while it loads here
3:06
while this is loading actually sorry I
3:08
want to make one uh I want to mention
3:11
one thing so you may have seen my
3:12
previous video that I go over 24. Dev in
3:16
order to copy and paste different user
3:18
interface components into your lovable
3:20
applications I love that web app it's
3:22
just such a cool use case that video has
3:24
gotten a lot of a lot of people have
3:26
been loving that and getting a ton of
3:28
value from it so you may be thinking
3:30
well does this replace that kind of Hack
3:32
That I Found and the answer is no
3:33
because figma is really good at building
3:35
full kind of frames for your websites or
3:38
for your apps but if you still want to
3:40
get inspiration via user interface
3:41
components you could easily import these
3:43
into your apps that you built on figma
3:46
and then load it into lovable so these
3:48
tools all work really good together and
3:51
that's why I'm so excited for this new
3:52
figma integration along with these other
3:54
kind of Integrations that are coming out
3:55
for lovable so next up let me click
3:58
inside of lovable let's launch this
4:00
project and just like any lovable
4:01
project you can see it's going to begin
4:03
writing the code because builder. I
4:05
converted this into code that could
4:07
easily be imported into lovable so let's
4:10
give it a second and then take a look at
4:11
the output here okay here we go looks
4:13
like we have our site up and running
4:15
this looks great this looks just like
4:17
how it looked inside of figma you can
4:19
see we have all of these products here
4:21
we have these different categories that
4:23
we can search through obviously this app
4:25
or this website these buttons and stuff
4:27
are not functional so we need to
4:29
actually go go ahead and go inside
4:30
lovable and make this functional but so
4:33
far this looks great all right guys
4:35
there we have it that is the new figma
4:37
integration inside of lovable and one
4:39
thing I want to mention is this at the
4:41
time of this recording this feature
4:42
actually hasn't gone live I actually got
4:44
Early Access via The Lovable team to
4:46
test this out and actually showcase this
4:48
to you guys since you guys have been
4:49
really loving my videos on this platform
4:51
so one thing I want to mention is there
4:53
are some errors with this it's not
4:54
perfect every time based on my
4:56
understanding they're working to
4:57
actually make this integration work a
4:59
lot more smooth so that way every time
5:01
you you know have some figma template or
5:04
something that you want to import into
5:05
your app it's just basically Flawless
5:06
every time however we're not at that
5:08

5:10
issues when you're testing this out but
