- Contents Loader
- Image / Photo / Illustration loader
Contents Loader is Design assistant’s new feature that makes designers easy to populate ui data. The Main concept of it is that we automatically find the corresponding ui data based on existing design. I.e. Fills image on rect, fills title for short text, fills paragraph for multi-line text.
Image Loader is subset of above feature, enabling designers to easily add photos by keyword.
Next on Grida
- Grida Team is focusing in field of design 2 code automation technology. We will release our new version of Assistant in this February with Full Layout detection capability.
This is a early product, opnesourced, and rapidly in development. If you experience any glitches or have suggestions, ideas feel free to open a new issue on github or make a PR. !
