How Exporting Works

Going from Adobe XD to HTML

Exporting takes your artboard and elements and exports it to the web.

Each element is translated into a HTML or SVG code counter part.

Artboards are exported as a div. In the documentation Artboards are referred to as views.

Artboard layers and groups are exported as HTMLElements. HTMLElement is the base class for HTML elements like div, img, span, etc. In the documentation layers and groups are referred to as elements.

Exported Elements

Layers are converted to the default HTML and CSS at this time.

You can add or subtract to the exported HTML and CSS.

The code you see here is subject to change.

The first goal has been to get an accurate representation.

The second phase is to improve the code quality from the feedback of the community.

The code you see here is able to be changed by you using the tools provided.

Any layer can be exported as an image. Use the Export as Image option.
