This seems like it would be good for creating display banners too!

Like the ones used by ads?
austinpena
Yeah. I work in marketing and creating many variations for display ads can be tedious.

Looks interesting. Do you read the Figma file format and re-implement all the rendering?

Although I get an 500 error right now: https://sc.robsite.net/files/1667596588-pikmaker-500-2.png

Sorry for that. Can you share with me the Figma link in Discord? So I can take a look on what is happening.
bquaresma
And yes, we are basically reading figma files and rendering ourselves. The idea is to also support psd and illustrator files in the future.

Figma has an API which will render the artboard and return an image. Why not use that?
bquaresma
Because you can't change the values :/

I hope the other Dutch people in this thread are laughing their asses of as well. Otherwise, really cool product!
