Figma recently released a new feature which is called MCP server which means now you can finally transfer your designs into code in just like several clicks. And this is so huge you can't even believe it. Uh in this video I'm going to show you how to set up M MCP server and how to transfer your designs from Figma to code. Hi my name is Sergei. I'm a creative director and visual designer and also I love to teach Figma and framer. So if you're new to this channel, welcome and please subscribe if you haven't already and like the video if you like it and thank you so much for your support on my last video.

Basically, uh it's a tool or a script that allows you to transfer some data from one source to an LLM um app. Uh which basically means that you can transfer your in in our case transfer your designs. uh so get them get the data from Figma and send it to a app which is AI app like so it can be a corser or chat GPT anything like that so basically these are all LLM um software we're going to use Corser and I recommend it to you because it's the easiest one on the market I think first of all you need to do some preparation work and we'll Start with Figma. Uh I'll show you an example of this calculator uh which I built using outer layouts. This is very important to use outer layouts for creating your designs in Figma currently. And also it's very important to use variables. Uh these things that you need to learn if you if you're not sure how to use them. Uh you can check out my other videos on the channel. I already have set up uh variables here. Let's check them out. So basically what I did um I have two groups. I have groups for colors and I have groups group for spacing. Basically it's spacing I'm going to use in my designs. So basically anywhere where I have a number I will use variable. So let's check it out. For example this u button this is a component. This is very important also to use components.
