Dualite is here
What is the definition of good code? That’s the question we started thinking around when building Dualite.
We had built and scaled our Figma plugin, but realised that after a point there’s stagnancy. Also we understood that this is not a retentive product, but a use-and-throw which is impulsively used when the need arises.
We realized that Figma will always be a design-first product and design to code was an illusive luxury that wasn’t simply attainable due to how design is done on Figma. We decided to take the tough decision of not pursuing and over-building the plugin.
No matter what we do, we realized there was a limiting point of how much good quality code we can churn out since we relied on Figma’s REST API and development flexibility as a plugin was limited.
Building for tech teams that move fast.
We saw two key trends. People slowly trusting AI, accepting its mistakes and trying multiple ways to get it work better in writing code and optimising design for them. Secondly, we saw people, especially small tech teams, ditching Figma to directly start building.
After interacting with 100+ tech teams and builders that move fast, we realised that after a product feature is described, two parallel processes: backend development and design starts. Once those two processes commence, then the frontend is integrated by stitching the design with its relevant API endpoint.
