feat: Export selection as a Design Bundle (JSON + assets)#263AvetosDesign wants to merge 5 commits into
Conversation
Adds a new export mode alongside the existing HTML/Tailwind/Flutter/ SwiftUI backends: serialize the resolved node tree for the current selection into a target-neutral design-bundle.json, plus a raster/vector assets folder, packaged as a zip. Unlike the other four, this is not a finished code target — it's an intermediate format meant to be consumed by downstream tooling. - packages/backend/src/designBundle/: builds the bundle from the resolved node tree (designBundleTree/Main), extracted text styles (designBundleTextStyles), exported raster/vector assets (designBundleAssets), and zips the result (designBundleZip). - packages/types/src/types.ts: DesignBundle* schema types. - apps/plugin/plugin-src/code.ts: handles the export-design-bundle message from the UI and returns the generated zip. - apps/plugin/ui-src/App.tsx, packages/plugin-ui/src/PluginUI.tsx: wires an "Export Design Bundle" button into the plugin UI's top toolbar (framework tabs, then this button, then About last), independent of whichever framework tab happens to be selected. - packages/backend/src/altNodes/jsonNodeConversion.ts: two supporting fixes surfaced while building the bundle serializer — inlined GROUP children now get layoutPositioning: "ABSOLUTE" so their original arrangement survives losing their GROUP parent, and a live-Plugin-API layoutPositioning read overrides the REST API v1 snapshot when the snapshot didn't carry it.
Adds a Design Bundle row to the "Output targets" table (with a caveat that it's an intermediate format, not finished code), a short new "Design Bundle export" section in the same register as "How conversion works" covering the zip layout, multi-selection behavior, and where to export it from, and a "Repository structure" entry for packages/backend/src/designBundle. Field-level schema detail is left to the DesignBundle* TSDoc comments in packages/types/src/types.ts rather than duplicated here, matching how the rest of the README defers detail to the source.
- Drop the useless ?? {} fallback in the gradient stop color spread —
spreading undefined/null in an object literal is already a no-op, so
the fallback guarded against nothing (no-useless-fallback-in-spread).
- Remove a stale eslint-disable-next-line comment on ConvertedNode that
oxlint (what this project actually lints with) never flagged in the
first place.
… comments Strips citations to this project's internal decision log (D-numbers), Phase/Stage pipeline vocabulary, and a broken reference to a doc path that doesn't exist in this repo from every comment touched by the Design Bundle export change. Comments now explain the 'why' inline, standalone, without assuming a reader has access to project-internal docs.

27-27: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueConsider bounded concurrency for asset export.
The loop awaits each
exportAsynccall in sequence. For a selection with many icons, total export time grows linearly. A small concurrency limit (for example 4 in-flight exports) shortens the export without the memory cost of exporting everything at once. Keep the sequential form if Figma's export throughput is the real bottleneck.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

the field is optional or otherwise compatible with vector assets, and use the

Really nice. I'll merge soon. Thanks! |
|
Before I review, is this visible on UI or only on backend? I didn't understand that part. |
|
Right now there is a download project button, maybe we should add it there? Not sure, asking you what are your thoughts. I think it is vite/nextjs for now. Maybe it is on main already. |
|
*A little embarrassed* I didn't notice that there were additional formats in there. I mistakenly thought that was just to download the file being displayed in the window. |

I was testing so it is not in prod yet. Let me know what you think. |

Title
feat: export selection as a Design Bundle (JSON + assets)
Summary
Adds a new export mode alongside the existing HTML / Tailwind / Flutter / SwiftUI backends: serialize the resolved node tree for the current selection into a target-neutral
design-bundle.json, plus a raster/vectorassets/folder, packaged as a zip.Unlike the other four export modes, this one isn't a finished code target you'd copy into a project — it's an intermediate format meant to be consumed by downstream tooling. WordPress is the motivating downstream use case (a separate plugin/CLI reads this bundle and turns it into a WordPress theme), but that consumer isn't part of this PR — this change only adds the generic export.
What's included
packages/backend/src/designBundle/— builds the bundle from the resolved node tree (designBundleTree/designBundleMain), extracted text styles (designBundleTextStyles), exported raster/vector assets (designBundleAssets), and zips the result (designBundleZip).packages/types/src/types.ts—DesignBundle*schema types, documented with TSDoc.apps/plugin/plugin-src/code.ts— handles theexport-design-bundlemessage from the UI and returns the generated zip.apps/plugin/ui-src/App.tsx,packages/plugin-ui/src/PluginUI.tsx— wires an "Export Design Bundle" button into the plugin UI's top toolbar (after the framework tabs, before "About"), independent of whichever framework tab is currently selected.packages/backend/src/altNodes/jsonNodeConversion.ts— two small supporting fixes surfaced while building the serializer:GROUPchildren now getlayoutPositioning: "ABSOLUTE"so their original arrangement survives losing theirGROUPparentlayoutPositioningread now overrides the REST API v1 snapshot when the snapshot didn't carry itREADME.md— a new Design Bundle row in the "Output targets" table (flagged as an intermediate format, not a finished code target), a short "Design Bundle export" section describing the zip layout and multi-selection behavior, and apackages/backend/src/designBundleentry in "Repository structure." Field-level schema detail is left to theDesignBundle*TSDoc comments rather than duplicated in prose, matching how the rest of the README already defers to source.Notes for reviewers
