UXPin
The full-stack UX design platform.
Overview
UXPin is a product design platform that stands out with its 'Merge' technology, which allows teams to use and sync production-ready React.js components directly in the design editor. This approach bridges the gap between design and development, ensuring that prototypes are built with the same building blocks as the final product. It supports creating interactive prototypes with states, logic, and data, aiming for a single source of truth for the product team.
✨ Key Features
- Design with real, production-ready code components (UXPin Merge)
- High-fidelity interactive prototyping
- Conditional logic and variables
- Built-in libraries for iOS, Material Design, and Bootstrap
- Real-time collaboration and commenting
- Automated design documentation and specs
- Design system management
🎯 Key Differentiators
- UXPin Merge technology allows designing with real code components
- Creates a single source of truth between design and development
- Powerful prototyping with logic and interactive states
Unique Value: Eliminates design drift and ensures consistency by allowing teams to design with the same production-ready components that developers use.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Enterprise application design with established React component libraries
- Streamlining designer-developer handoff
- Building interactive forms and data tables
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Quick, low-fidelity wireframing
- Teams not using a code-based component library (though it can be used without Merge)
- Graphic design or illustration
🏆 Alternatives
Offers a fundamentally different workflow than Figma or Axure by using code as the source of truth for UI components, leading to higher fidelity and consistency but requiring a more mature development process.
