Tailwind Sync

Tailwind Sync is a tool box that bridges Figma variables and Tailwind code, streamlining the collaboration between designers and developers, from simple projects to design systems.

FeaturesPlug and play: Simply drag and drop the file into your code editor and start coding with the exact same theme as in Figma.

Variables, not values: Tailwind Sync outputs variables instead of hardcoded values, perfect for complex, scalable design systems in enterprise environments.

Built-in changelog: Automatically tracks and documents changes to variables and text styles, ensuring easy versioning and clear communication with a shared language across design & development teamsTailwind scoping: Ensures Tailwind scoping matches Figma’s, guiding developers to use values consistently, and maintain design integrity.

Tips for Using the PluginIgnore Design-Only Folders: If your variable path includes design-specific organizational folders, place them between parenthesis (e.g., (folder)). The plugin will ignore these.

Text Styles Exclusion: Aside from font-families, the plugin does not take text style-attached variables into account.

Scope Tailwind Variables: You can use Figma’s scoping feature to limit your Tailwind variables to specific properties.

Changelog Tokens: The tokens displayed in the changelog represent the final class that the developer will use (e.g., bg-button-primary).
