Turn your drawings into Objective-C or Swift drawing code·paintcodeapp.com

PaintCode is a vector drawing app for macOS that turns drawings into Objective-C, Swift, Java, C#, JavaScript, or SVG code in real time. It acts as a bridge between developers and graphic designers, letting users import PDF, SVG, PSD, AI and EPS files and export resolution-independent, parametric drawing code as a StyleKit. The generated code can be used in iOS, macOS, Android, and web projects.
