Cursor + Claude are amazing… but why is UI still so painful?
Hey everyone đź‘‹
We has been experimenting a lot with workflows using Cursor / Claude Code recently, and we keep running into the same issue:
The AI is incredible at logic, features, APIs, and iteration…
but when it comes to UI and understanding designs — things start to fall apart pretty quickly.
Some common things I keep seeing:
Layouts breaking even on simple Figma-to-code prompts
Spacing / alignment not matching design intent
Responsive behavior needing constant manual fixing
AI not really understanding Figma structure or component hierarchy
This isn’t really a tooling gap in AI coding agents — it’s a missing layer in the workflow, because
Locofy sits exactly in that layer between Figma and AI coding agents like Cursor and Claude Code.
It converts Figma designs into structured, pixel-perfect frontend code so AI agents can reliably build on top of a clean UI foundation instead of trying to reconstruct design intent from scratch.
That “design-to-structured-frontend” layer is what makes vibecoding workflows actually work for production UI.
