## Getting Started

1. **Create a new project**:

```bash
   npx create-figdu
   ```

2. **Navigate to your project directory**:

```bash
   cd your-figdu-project
   ```

3. **Build your project**:

- For a one-time build, run:
     ```bash
     npm run build
     ```
   - To watch for changes and rebuild automatically, run:
     ```bash
     npm run watch
     ```

4. **Open Figma**:

- Go to the **Plugins** menu in Figma.
   - Select **Development** > **Import plugin from manifest**.
   - Choose the `manifest.json` file in your project directory.

5. **Start coding**:
   - Edit the `src` folder to build your plugin.

## Building for Production

When you're ready to ship your plugin, run:

```bash
npm run build
```

This will generate an optimized production build in the `dist` folder. You can then package and publish your plugin to the Figma Plugin Store.

## Why React and Chakra UI?

- **React**: A powerful and flexible library for building user interfaces. With React, you can create reusable components and manage state efficiently.
- **Chakra UI**: A simple, modular, and accessible component library that provides pre-built, customizable components to speed up your development process.

Together, React and Chakra UI make it easy to build beautiful, responsive, and maintainable UIs for your Figma plugins.
