From Figma to Pixel-Perfect: My React Component Workflow

Design handoff tools promise pixel-perfect code generation. In practice, I still hand-code every interface — but I lean on Figma's inspector heavily to get there fast.

My checklist

• Pull exact spacing, radius, and type scale values from the inspector
• Map colors to design tokens, never hardcoded hex values
• Build the static layout first, states (hover/focus/disabled) second
• Check against the design at 3 breakpoints before calling it done

Skipping that last step is the single biggest source of "looks right on my screen" bugs I've shipped.
