Your team repeats the same steps in the editor
Developers and designers run the same manual sequence dozens of times a day. A VS Code extension or Figma plugin turns that into one command, inside the tool they already live in.

The cost of manual work
Is your team fighting their own tools?
If any of these feel familiar, a custom extension is not a luxury, it is the fix. Every one of these problems is solvable with the right approach.
Off-the-shelf plugins that almost fit your workflow
The marketplace plugin does most of what you need and forces a workaround for the rest. A custom build matches your exact workflow with nothing to fight.
Your design and code are drifting apart
Design tokens in Figma and variables in code fall out of sync by hand. A custom Figma plugin or VS Code extension keeps them connected so the two stay in step.
Standards live in one person's head
Coding standards, component usage and naming conventions get explained over and over. Tooling that lives in the editor enforces them automatically for every team member.
A developer tool you want to sell
Plenty of successful products are VS Code extensions or Figma plugins. If your idea belongs in the editor, you need a partner who can build it and publish it to the marketplace.
Manual checks that should be automatic
Accessibility, naming, token usage and lint rules get checked by eye, when they could be flagged live inside VS Code or Figma as the work happens.

What we build
Our VS Code & Figma development services
From a focused editor command to a product-grade extension or plugin with its own backend, every project starts from a blank file.
Custom VS Code Extension Development
Editor extensions built on the VS Code API for commands, language features, linters, snippets and the workflow tools your developers need.
Custom Figma Plugin Development
Figma plugins that automate design tasks, generate layouts, manage components and connect Figma to the rest of your stack.
Design Token & Code Sync
Plugins and extensions that keep Figma design tokens and code variables in sync, so design and engineering share one source of truth.
Workflow Automation Tools
Internal tooling that automates the repetitive steps your team runs in VS Code or Figma every day, from scaffolding to bulk edits.
Language & Linting Extensions
Custom language support, syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, diagnostics and linters built into VS Code for your stack or internal DSL.
Figma to Code Workflows
Plugins that export Figma frames into clean components, tokens or specs, narrowing the gap between design handoff and build.
Marketplace Publishing
Extensions and plugins prepared and submitted to the VS Code Marketplace and Figma Community, meeting review guidelines so approval is not a scramble.
Team & Internal Distribution
Private extensions and plugins distributed inside your organization, with the standards, tokens and shortcuts your team relies on built in.
Design QA & Accessibility Plugins
Figma plugins that flag contrast, naming, spacing and accessibility issues live, so problems are caught at design time, not in QA.
AI-Assisted Editor Tools
VS Code extensions and Figma plugins that bring AI assistance into the workflow, from code suggestions to design generation, wired to your chosen model.
Backend & API Integration
Extensions and plugins connected to your APIs, services or data so they do real work inside the editor, not just rearrange what is on screen.
Maintenance & Support
Ongoing updates as VS Code and Figma ship new API versions, plus a fast helpdesk that keeps your tooling published and working.

Why choose us
Editor tooling done the right way
Anyone can ship a plugin that technically runs. We build extensions and plugins that are fast, fit your real workflow and fully owned by you, then keep them working as VS Code and Figma change.
Start your project-
We know both APIs deeply
We build on the VS Code and Figma plugin APIs every day, so your tool uses the platform properly instead of fighting it.
-
Design and code, connected
We bridge Figma and the codebase so tokens, components and specs stay in sync instead of drifting apart by hand.
-
Built around your real workflow
We watch how your team actually works first, then build the tool that removes the friction, not a generic feature set.
-
We handle marketplace review
We prepare your VS Code Marketplace or Figma Community listing to meet the guidelines and pass review.
-
Lean and fast
Editor tooling has to stay out of the way. We build extensions and plugins that are responsive and never slow the tool down.
-
You own the code
Full IP assignment on every contract. The extension or plugin and its source belong to you, with no recurring licence on your own tool.
-
Built for teams
Standards, tokens and shortcuts baked in, so the whole team works the same way without anyone having to remember the rules.
-
Maintained as the tools evolve
VS Code and Figma update their APIs regularly. We keep your tooling compatible and published instead of letting it break.
How we work
Our plugin development process
Eight clear stages, each with a visible output you can review and approve. No black box between kickoff and launch.
- 01
Discovery
We map the workflow, the steps to automate and the systems the tool needs to connect to.
- 02
Architecture
Extension or plugin structure, API approach and any backend agreed before a line of code is written.
- 03
UI Design
Commands, panels and any plugin interface designed and reviewed before development starts.
- 04
Development
Clean, documented code built on the VS Code or Figma API with demos at every milestone.
- 05
QA & Testing
Cross-version and edge-case testing inside the editor before deployment or submission.
- 06
Launch
Deployed to your team or submitted to the Marketplace or Figma Community with guidelines met.
- 07
Review Support
Any reviewer feedback addressed quickly so your listing is approved without unnecessary delay.
- 08
Support
Ongoing updates and compatibility checks with each VS Code and Figma release.

Client words
Trusted by teams that live in their editor
They built a VS Code extension that scaffolds our services to our exact standards. New engineers are productive on day one instead of week two, and every repo now looks the same. We could not have built it this cleanly in-house.
The Figma plugin they built keeps our design tokens in sync with our codebase automatically. Design and engineering stopped arguing about hex values because there is now one source of truth. It paid for itself in the first sprint.
Our product is a VS Code extension and they took it from prototype to a published Marketplace listing with thousands of installs. It runs fast, the code is ours, and they handle every API change before it breaks anything.
Questions, answered
VS Code & Figma plugin development FAQs
How much does a VS Code extension or Figma plugin cost?
Most projects land between $4,000 and $40,000 depending on complexity and integrations. A focused single-purpose tool sits at the lower end; a product-grade extension or plugin with a backend sits higher. Every quote is itemized before work begins.
How long does it take to build?
A focused extension or plugin typically takes 3 to 7 weeks. A product-grade tool with accounts, a backend and integrations runs 8 to 16 weeks. You see a working build early and a demo every sprint.
Do you build for VS Code, Figma, or both?
Both. We build VS Code extensions for developers and Figma plugins for designers, and we often build both when the goal is to keep design and code in sync.
Can you keep our design tokens in sync with code?
Yes. Connecting Figma tokens to code variables is one of the most common reasons clients commission a custom plugin and extension pair. We keep both sides reading from one source of truth.
Can the tool connect to our APIs or backend?
Yes. We connect extensions and plugins to your APIs, services and data so they do real work inside the editor, and we handle authentication securely.
Can you publish to the VS Code Marketplace and Figma Community?
Yes. We prepare the listing, assets and required metadata, submit the extension or plugin and handle any reviewer feedback until it is approved and live.
Can you distribute privately to our team only?
Yes. We can package extensions for private or internal distribution and share Figma plugins within your organization, so only your people get them.
Can you build language support or linters for VS Code?
Yes. We build custom language features, syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, diagnostics and linters, including support for internal languages and DSLs.
Can you bring AI into the editor?
Yes. We build VS Code extensions and Figma plugins that wire AI assistance into the workflow, connected to your chosen model and your own data where needed.
Can you rebuild or extend an existing plugin?
Yes. We audit the existing extension or plugin, then extend or rebuild it on the current API, keeping the behaviour your users rely on.
Will it keep working as VS Code and Figma update?
On a maintenance plan, yes. Both ship regular API updates. We test against them and update your tooling so it stays published and functional.
What happens after launch?
Every project includes a handover, documentation and a warranty window for fixes. Most clients move onto a maintenance plan so the tooling stays compatible as the platforms evolve. We are still available for version two, not just while the invoice is open.
