HewnFrame

About this plugin

HewnFrame is a design audit plugin: an accessibility checker, design-system linter and component QA tool in one panel. Run it on any frame and get a 0-100 score plus a list of issues, each with a stable check ID. All 18 checks are free.WHAT IT CHECKSAccessibility (WCAG 2.2) - color contrast with real luminance math (walks the layer tree and blends translucent backgrounds), touch-target size (44x44), image alt text, heading hierarchy, focus-order hints.Design system - hardcoded fills and strokes that should be bound to Variables or styles, unbound text styles, spacing off the 4px scale, effects without an effect style. Catches token drift before it spreads.Component health - missing variant states (hover, pressed, disabled, focus, error), naming convention, detached copies of existing components, properties that are never overridden.Visual consistency - near-duplicate frames that should share a component, name-family frames whose padding or type size quietly diverged, unused local styles, page naming.WHY DESIGNERS PICK IT- Deterministic: same file, same score, every run. No AI guessing, no noise.- Stable check IDs (a-01, ds-04, vc-03): mute a rule once, it stays muted across releases.- Reveal: click any issue and the canvas jumps to the exact node, across pages too.- Fast enough to run on every save: a frame scores in well under a second.- Private: the audit runs entirely on your machine. Your designs never leave Figma.FREE VS PROFree: all 18 checks on one frame at a time, unlimited runs, no account required.Pro ($14.99/mo): multi-frame batch audit, whole-file audit across every page, auto-fix (apply one safe fix or every safe fix at once), Markdown export for client/dev handoff, audit history with score trends. Cancel anytime, 7-day refund.COMPARED TODesign Lint covers a subset of design-system checks; HewnFrame runs 18 checks across four categories with a unified score and Variables-aware bindings. Stark is excellent if enterprise WCAG compliance is your only concern; HewnFrame covers accessibility plus design system, components and consistency at a similar price. Tokens Studio manages your tokens; HewnFrame audits whether your designs actually use them.PRIVACY AND SUPPORTNetwork access is limited to our license server: license keys and an opaque device id only, never document content.
