PaintCode
MacTurn vector designs into native code for Mac & iOS
Overview
PaintCode is a developer utility that bridges design and development by converting vector graphics into clean, native code (Swift, Objective-C, C#). It eliminates static image assets, cutting app size and boosting performance. Users design icons, UI elements, or animations directly in the app and export reusable code that integrates seamlessly into projects. It supports dynamic colors, responsive resizing, and animations—ideal for pixel-perfect, scalable interfaces. Perfect for teams streamlining workflows, it lets developers tweak designs via code without revisiting design tools, bridging the gap between design and dev efficiently.
