MarkupGen vs. TeleportHQ: Converter vs. Low-Code Platform
TeleportHQ and MarkupGen both start from a Figma design and both hand back real, framework-agnostic code — that overlaps more than with most tools on this list. Where they diverge is in what gets bundled around the conversion step: TeleportHQ wraps it into a low-code platform with forms, a headless CMS and one-click hosting; MarkupGen keeps the surface area to the conversion itself.
Quick answer: want forms, CMS collections and Vercel hosting built into the same tool you use to convert Figma to code? TeleportHQ's platform covers that. Want a focused Figma-to-HTML/CSS/React converter with an ongoing free plan rather than a time-limited trial? MarkupGen is the more direct fit.
What TeleportHQ does well
TeleportHQ converts Figma frames into code through a dedicated Figma plugin, exporting to React, Vue, Angular, or plain HTML/CSS/JS. Around that conversion, it adds a fuller low-code toolset: reusable component libraries shared across projects, real-time multi-editor collaboration, GitHub version control integration, built-in forms with submission handling, headless CMS integration for separating content from layout, and one-click deployment to Vercel with a custom domain.
That combination is genuinely useful if you want the design-to-code step and the site's ongoing content, forms and hosting handled inside one platform, rather than exporting code and wiring up a CMS or form backend yourself afterward.
The trade-off is on the free tier: TeleportHQ's no-cost option is a 7-day trial (one project, watermarked output, no project backups), not an ongoing free plan. Continued use past the trial requires the Professional plan, billed at $18/editor/month monthly or $9/editor/month on an annual plan.
What MarkupGen does differently
MarkupGen is a standalone Figma-to-code converter — no CMS, no form backend, no hosting layer bundled in. Export a frame with the Figma plugin, AI generates HTML, CSS and (optionally) React from the design's actual structure, refine visually in an in-app editor, then export in one of six CSS formats: Vanilla CSS, Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, Bulma, Materialize or Pico CSS.
Auto Layout maps directly to Flexbox, responsive breakpoints come from the design's own resizing constraints, and every export gets an automatic quality score. The free plan is ongoing rather than a time-limited trial, so you can convert a real frame and judge the output before entering any payment details.
Where each one fits
| TeleportHQ | MarkupGen | |
|---|---|---|
| Core job | Figma-to-code + CMS/forms/hosting platform | Standalone Figma-to-HTML/CSS/React converter |
| Code output | React, Vue, Angular, HTML/CSS/JS | Vanilla, Tailwind, Bootstrap, Bulma, Materialize, Pico, React |
| CMS / forms / hosting | Built in | Not included — export only |
| Free tier | 7-day trial, watermarked | Ongoing free plan |
| Paid pricing | From $9/editor/month (billed annually; $18/editor/month monthly) | Flat plan tiers |
If you want the conversion, content management and hosting handled inside one low-code platform, TeleportHQ's bundled toolset is built for that. If you want a focused converter with an ongoing free plan and the widest choice of CSS output formats, MarkupGen's free plan is the more direct starting point.
