Hi y’all! New to Plasmic and enjoying the workflow so far. I created the project, deployed to Github, and later on connected Vercel with Github, so everytime I send a commit either directly to the repo or from the Visual Editor I got a rebuild
I found some limitations either way:
• Color property on text elements don’t support modern CSS like liner-gradients or hsl. I though if I used the HTML attribute to override the style
property it was going to work, but no, I image this is associated on how Plasmic process the CSS. Understanding how the internal works will be great!
• Also, as a user of Tailwind, I really like to compose css with classnames, because its easier to do and test at the same time. One cool thing that I like from Tailwind as well is that you have the default configuration for the theme like colors fonts and others. I didn’t found a way to do the same in Plasmic unless I modified everything from the UI. It will be amazing to have a JSON config for setting all that up.
• Finally, not sure if any part of the codegen is open source or if there is a way to contribute with. So far the packages (loaders, examples, etc) are available, but some interesting parts like making more complex integrations depend on how things run in the background, in particular how CSS is processed, and how some components need to be defined in the code to be really composable within Plasmic
