I am. I’m building an automated design tool that converts design tool files into auto generated code or a templating language that can be used to render views / flows natively on web / native mobile. I’m looking for someone who can help with web front end and backend, I work horizontally across the stack on iOS / Android building SDKs and native mobile experiences. I have 6 years of experience in the industry, have been part of a successful acquisition and now mostly highly interested in building this design company idea.

Why am I building this? Companies waste too much resources on building design then handing off later — essentially 2X the work. Giving designers / product people this sort of technology would empower them to validate their ideas quickly — essential to finding product market fit quickly.

Where I’m currently at: - I have an exceptionally fast text editor - I can convert 3 of the major mobile design tool files into a templating language than can be used to render native views on the fly - Mac app centered around this technology - Lots of hard problems solved around the current idea

What I’m looking for: - someone who is as excited about this idea as I am - someone experienced in backend and web front end - Next steps are finalizing UX / porting a web app for people to use (sort of like Figma) - integrate in analytics services - versioning system for designers

Reply to this post if anyone is interested I’ll post an email to connect to if anyone cares.
