From Design to Code: How Locofy.ai is Revolutionizing Frontend Dev with Honey Mittal

Welcome to the very first episode of The AI Dev Diary! In this series, hosts Guy Charusadhirakul and Ashnil Dixit dive into the world of AI within apps and games, speaking directly with the founders and engineers who are building the future. In this episode, we sit down with Honey Mittal, the Co-Founder and CEO of Locofy.ai. Honey shares his journey from building mobile apps at startups like Wego and Homage to solving one of the biggest pain points in software development: the "grunt work" of turning UI designs into production-ready code. We discuss the evolution of design-to-code technology, the real impact of AI on engineering productivity, and why building a "wrapper" around an LLM isn't enough to build a defensible startup today. 📍 In This Episode: 0:00 – Intro: Welcome to The AI Dev Diary. 2:19 – Meet Honey Mittal: Journey from India to Singapore's startup ecosystem. 5:38 – The Elevator Pitch: What is Locofy.ai and how does it work? 7:42 – The Origin Story: Solving the 900-screen problem at Homage. 13:28 – The AI Evolution: Moving from heuristics to LLMs and Agents. 18:00 – Code Quality: How Locofy avoids "spaghetti code" and ensures pixel perfection. 25:15 – AI & Team Size: Are we doing more with less, or just innovating faster? 29:00 – Advice for Founders: How to build a "moat" in the age of AI. 32:21 – Rapid Fire Round: Favorite AI tools, Singapore’s AI scene, and advice to his younger self. 40:07 – Closing thoughts and where to find Honey. 🚀 Key Takeaways: Bridging the Gap: Locofy serves as the layer between design tools (Figma) and the engineer's world (React, Vue, React Native, etc.), automating up to 80% of frontend grunt work. The "Moat" is Proprietary Data: Honey explains why having proprietary design models and deep integrations is the key to staying ahead of generic LLMs. Design Thinking Resurgence: As coding becomes easier, high-quality design and creativity will become the primary differentiators for digital products. 🔗 Connect with our Guest & Hosts: Honey Mittal:   / honeymittal   Locofy.ai: https://www.locofy.ai Guy Charusadhirakul:   / guycharusadhirakul   Ashnil Dixit:   / ashnildixit   Disclaimer: The views expressed in this podcast are the personal opinions of the hosts and guests and do not represent the views of their respective employers. #AIDevDiary #Locofy #SoftwareEngineering #DesignToCode #GenerativeAI #FigmaToReact #SingaporeStartups
