About BrixUI

BrixUI is a Figma resource for product designers, freelancers and small design teams building dashboards, apps and internal tools. Instead of downloading a full file, designers browse the online library, copy a component such as a modal, chart card, sidebar or chip set, and paste it directly into Figma, where it stays fully editable. The pieces belong to one connected design system of foundations, variables, components, patterns and screens. A free tier includes more than 100 components and a free version of the UI kit. The paid tiers unlock over 19,000 components and variants, more than 3,600 icons and logos and all design kits, sold as one time lifetime licenses for individuals or teams of five.

About Overlay

Design with your codebase - A User Interface design editor integrated with Visual Studio Code. You can design on the canvas using your components freely like you are used to. Except every element is a real React component, not a picture of one. Build a component in isolation without ever leaving design mode, and watch every change appear on the canvas as you type: no refresh, no re-import, no switching windows. When they have access to your codebase and reuse it to generate UIs, they can make powerful edits while respecting your design system's usage and guidelines.
