In the previous articles, I demonstrated the step-by-step processes of recreating the Home and Author pages of the Goodreads app using Figma and the Uno Platform Material Toolkit and how to generate the UI code using Uno Platform’s Figma Plugin. In this segment, I will be recreating our final UI, the Book Profile Page, before moving on to the last part of series; how to consume the code produced by the Uno Platform plugin.

Once that is done, and you’ve renamed your template, we can focus on the navigation components of our UI. Both the Top and Bottom TabBar come as part of the standard page template. Top Navigation Bar For the top Navigation bar, as it already comes as part of the template page, all we need to do is make the custom edits so that it

For the second page of our Goodreads tutorial, we recreate the Author Page using Uno Platform’s open-source Plugin for Figma and Material Toolkit and generate the accompanying XAML code. Using the same approach, you can quickly build complete UIs for Uno Platform applications at lightning speed. Uno Platform brings a leading code generation plugin and Uno Material Toolkit into Figma, enabling teams to ship Uno Platform applications faster than ever. Designers can export developer-friendly XAML code for engineers Developers can skip the grunt work of coding UI from scratch.

Start by adding the Standard Page Template to your canvas and remember to Detach Instance. Use this opportunity to rename the page
