Dependencies

Before you begin with parabeac_core, you will need the following dependencies:

• Dart
• Flutter
• Figma File (Sample: Parabeac Counter App Demo)

Running parabeac_core

To get going with parabeac_core for your design files from Figma, follow these steps:

$ pub get
$ dart parabeac.dart -f Figma File ID -k Figma API Key -o Absolute Path To Output Directory

Understanding the Code with a Simple Analogy

Imagine you’re a chef trying to make a dish without a recipe. You have the ingredients (your design file), but without a proper guide, it will be a chaotic endeavor. Now, parabeac_core acts like a well-written cookbook—transforming your raw ingredients (design) into a carefully prepared meal (Flutter code) that is ready to serve! You’ll need to know some IDs and keys (like your recipe ingredients) to make it work; but once you do, you can whip up something marvelous!

Steps to Retrieve Figma File ID and API Key

1. Log into your Figma account.
2. Select your design file.
   • The file ID is part of the URL following “figma.com/file/”.
3. For the API key, navigate to your user profile, go to Settings, and scroll down to create a new Personal Access Token.

Running the Generated Code

After generating your Flutter code, it’s time to run it:

Running a Figma FrameScreen

1. Open the generated project from the defined path.
2. Modify main.dart to reference your screen widget.
3. Save and run the app with flutter run.

Running a Figma Component

1. Navigate to the relevant widget screen.
2. Use a LayoutBuilder to reference your component.
3. Save and run with flutter run.

Running a Component Package

Utilize tools like Storybook.js, and make sure you configure configurations.json to include widget isolation.

Global Theming

With parabeac_core, you can easily manage color and text styles. Once recognized, it generates files ready for internal and external use.

Metrics

parabeac_core tracks usage without collecting personal information. Metrics can be disabled via an environment variable if necessary.

Troubleshooting Ideas

If you run into issues, consider the following:

• Double-check your Figma file ID and API Key for accuracy.
• Ensure you have all necessary dependencies installed correctly.
• Consult the Parabeac Documentation for in-depth guidance.
