Most kits hand you a finished look and leave the rest to you. UIX starts from your brand, makes the whole system, then gives the same system to your code, your Figma file and your AI agent.
The problem
Designers have one file, developers another, and AI agents guess.
The app drifts. You find nine blues, three button sizes and text nobody can read. Fixing it by hand means checking every screen, again, each time something changes.
A UI kit gives you a fast start, but in someone else’s look. Building it yourself gives you control and all the upkeep. Either way, keeping Figma, code and your AI tools in step is your job.
Comparison
Each tool is good at something different. We filled this in from each product’s public website and docs in November 2026. “Not documented” means we couldn’t find it there. The last column describes a typical kit, not one product.

Three principles
Pick UIX if you want one design system of your own, used the same way in code, in Figma and by your AI tools. It works alongside shadcn/ui, so you keep what you have.
Start from a color, one of 251 presets, or five short questions. UIX builds color scales, type, spacing, radius, shadows, light and dark themes, and 74 components you can show in 10 visual styles. It all comes from your brand, so your product doesn’t look like everyone else’s.
Your web code, your Figma file and your AI agent read the same system. In code, link the hosted CSS file, run uix-ui sync, or install from your system’s own shadcn registry. In Figma, the plugin makes real variables and components. Agents read it over MCP.
Every text and background pair is checked in light and dark mode, with WCAG 2 and APCA. You get a receipt that lists each pair and its result, so nobody has to check by eye.
Questions
Short answers about shadcn/ui, Figma, contrast and what is free.
Ask us anythingNo. UIX makes the design system: colors, type, tokens and themes. Each saved system also has a shadcn-compatible registry, so the shadcn CLI can add components that already use your brand. Components you already have keep working.
No. You can make a system on the website and use it in code and with AI agents. The Figma plugin, UIX Design System Generator, is for teams that also design in Figma.
Every text and background pair in your system, in light and dark mode, with its WCAG 2 ratio, its APCA value and whether it passes.
Link the hosted CSS file in your page, or run npx uix-ui pull with your system’s id to write the theme, tokens and components into your repo. Run npx uix-ui sync later to bring in changes.
One saved design system, the 41 free presets, the free components and 4 code formats: CSS variables, Tailwind v4, W3C tokens and the AI Pack. UIX Pro starts with a 7-day free trial; the prices are on the pricing page.
