Design Assets to Git

About this plugin

Design Assets to Git

Export icons, illustartion images and all your assets from Figma to GitHub/GitLab in one click.

🔐 Security & Privacy First

We value your privacy, so we took these measures for maximum security:

No token storage - tokens are used once and never saved

Direct API calls - data only sent to GitHub/GitLab APIs

GDPR compliant - no personal data retention

Plugin Code is Open Source: anyone can fork the code and run the plugin locally for full control

👉 View the source code: github.com/your-username/design-assets-to-git.

Want complete control? Just download the project and run it locally :).

Now, Why It’s Useful?

Before: Designer exports → sends files → developer adds manually → back-and-forth on names and formats.

After: Designer selects assets → clicks Export → PR/MR ready for review. Done.

Zero friction handoff between design and development teams.

Key Features
