Zeplin popularized structured handoffs, but it focuses on specs and asset management. Weblify goes further by generating actual code snippets that reflect your design system. If your team wants to reduce implementation time, that difference matters.
Specs vs code
Zeplin provides measurements and style guides. Weblify provides ready-to-use HTML/CSS/React/Vue/Tailwind output. Developers still appreciate Zeplin’s organization, but they finish work faster when they receive code.
Integrating Weblify into handoffs
Weblify runs directly inside Figma—no exporting or syncing to another cloud workspace. Designers stay in their file, engineers get code, and updates happen faster.
Hybrid approach
Many teams keep Zeplin for large documentation efforts but use Weblify for fast-moving squads that need code every sprint. If I had to choose one for speed, Weblify wins because it closes the last mile between design and implementation.
Tip for coexistence
Use Zeplin as the style bible and Weblify as the code generator. Link Weblify snippets inside Zeplin projects so engineers can jump straight from specs to production-ready code.
