Catalyst MUI Plugin

About this plugin

This plugin is specifically designed to streamline the workflow for teams utilizing a Design System built with MUI (Material UI) v6.1.0. Its primary function is to enable the seamless exportation of the Design System theme directly from Figma into a format compatible with Material UI-based projects.

Key Features:

1. Theme Exportation: The plugin generates a JSON theme file containing all key design tokens and styles defined in the Figma Design System.
2. Comprehensive Style Coverage: The exported JSON includes:
3. Typography: Font families, weights, sizes, and line heights.
4. Colors: Primary, secondary, and custom color palettes.
5. Shapes: Border radii, component shapes, and other styling details.
6. Spacing: Margins, paddings, and grid spacings.
7. Breakpoints: Responsive design breakpoints for consistent behavior across devices.
8. Component Styles: Custom styling for MUI components, ensuring pixel-perfect design fidelity.
9. React App Integration: The JSON file can be directly imported into your MUI Material-based React application, enabling effortless theming and ensuring design-to-development consistency.
10. Customization Made Easy: Developers can use the exported JSON as an overridden theme file in Material UI, allowing for easy customization and updates to the theme as the Design System evolves.

This plugin eliminates manual theme configuration, saving time and reducing errors, while ensuring that your Design System is accurately reflected in the final product. It’s a must-have tool for development teams aiming for seamless collaboration between design and code.
