Hey hunters and makers!
I’m Shawn from the FUNCTION12 team and beyond happy and excited to introduce our design-to-code automation tool to the Product Hunt community that will help your design get translated into codes in a second.
Why we started🙌
Luke, our CTO, and I started working together way back ago and since then, we always had this thought back in our head: "By cutting the time spent on repetitive hand-coding, it would save us so much time to focus on other priorities."
That's why we started FUNCTION12. Not only to save our time but also the hours took away from numerous developers around the world. One of the examples that show our dedication to cutting time spent in UI coding is how exported codes in FUNCTION12 are in rem and absolute-free. Although will be dealt with below, such features and dedications have led us in the initial front-end coding test to decrease the time spent on building a mobile screen from 6 hours to 16 minutes with our solution. Now, it’s time for you to enjoy this innovation!
What’s special about FUNCTION12🧑💻
FUNCTION12’s engine translates the designs to production-level codes by not just copying and pasting the designs, but by understanding and translating the designs to code. Our engine analyzes and finds the intention of the designs and produces previews and codes that are optimized for development. This is why we use the expression, ‘translated design to code’ as we provide codes, which are rem-based and absolute-free.
Our tool is solely developed with the aspiration of automating the hand-coding repetition for developers based on our experience. However, our goal is not only to automate the boring part of your work but also to lead to better products with our help. So if you are a front-end developer who feels eager to work smarter as Luke and I did, FUNCTION12 is for you.

@n_russell Thank you so much, Nick! You can paste your Figma URL on our homepage to get started right away or play around with the design templates also provided on our homepage. 😄
Wish all the best to you too!
@n_russell Thank you Russell for your feedback! We will improve the overall UX in the coming days.
What kind of project are you working on?

@shawn_park_f12 Seen this! And templates for the win! We're building the same into Dualo to help people overcome the cold start problem. Great to see you guys thinking in the same way 🙌

@san_kang That's the great thing about product hey, especially at the early stage, it's so fast to keep improving! I'll be keeping an eye as you guys develop this over the coming days / weeks / months!
@livia_burbulea We will strive to meet your expectation! We have planned a series of updates to come in months to come. You may follow us to get the latest updates.
@gauravgoyal_gg Hey Gaurav, thank you! It depends on the pages and UI complexity, but based on our beta testing, a mobile screen that would normally take 6 hours when coding in hand took only 16 minutes to export. We have templates on our Homepage, so please check them out!
@gauravgoyal_gg Thank you so much! Yes, we really want to build a product that can be the 'game changer' and help developers to build better without repetition. Are you building a product also?
@dan_robins Thank you so much for your interest :)

@san_kang No worries Melvin! As a designer, I has spent more time than I like to remember handing over designs to developers - this product looks like it might genuinely solve this. Very exciting!
Report
Please make Design to Code really convenient! I'm looking forward to it!
@hm1 Hey hm, thank you for your interest! Yes, our dedication is to make not only the design-to-code convenient but also make create an environment that developers love! Do you have prior experience with design-to-code tools?

@shawn_park_f12 I've used Framer and Plasmic in the past, but I'm sure it's also powerful. I think it's a project with countless potentials in the future and fewer technology constraints. 😊
@hm1 I see! Please check out FUNCTION12 as well, we provide not only native codes but also will be continuously upgrading our performance and features for developers to develop with less repetition and better production quality. If you have any feedback, please feel free to share anytime! We love to talk to our users😁
@hm1 There are more features to be introduced in years to come. More frameworks will be supported and overall design interpretation algorithms will get improved further! Come and register to be a member to get more updates from us :)
