Swiftify vs. Zeplin

For me as a picky person I never used the file convertor but for a small portion of code, it is good. With the classes that have more than one initializer, it got confusing and I had to dig to find the exact issue to fix.

I still have some issues, especially with color integration between the style guide and also project. When we update the colors, it's not automatically sync to every project. Aside from that, zeplin solves my problem for hand-off design from design to developer. I set zeplin is source of truth design file

• Put in your Objective-C code, select the version of Swift language to convert, click convert. That's all!
• Swiftify is now creating a platform to convert Objective C to #C, something that can help for different development projects platforms.
• Swiftify offers a few free converts to try to show you the power of it. Their price for a subscription plan is really good for big projects.

• Provides dimensions across iOS, Android and Web which saves developers from a lot of guess and check when implementing designs
• Allows for easy download of digital design assets for developers to easily organize and implement
• Great user experience in terms of the product itself and a great value for your money
• Automatically generates CSS for web designs which is AMAZING!

• It lacks general performance and availability
• It doesn't handle Objective-C macro well
• Overall conversion speed expected to be much better

• It would be better if it has a dedicated web application
• It's not the easiest tool to learn and start working with
• It would be awesome if it had more features turning it into an all-around tool for mockups and prototypes

Zeplin's component management and style guide help us to be consistent across whole product and it so easy to use for non-technical person. It is now easy to collaboration for designes between different teams like stackholders, product owner, UI/UX, developers and testers. Now there is only one point of reference is Zeplin so it is so easy to get details without asking designer or developer again and again.

There are constant upgrades to improve the conversion.

Zeplin has classic support with a chat from the website. It's working fine, and we're also getting the support needed when needed. However, Zeplin is very good at closing the incidents and moving on. It was a while ago we had a case with their support so that it might have improved since then.

Swiftify tries to convert the code even if the code can not be executed in a real situation. I chose Swiftify because most of the times you just need to convert one line, one method... That of course, it is using and used by other code that you didn't add in the conversion code, but you just need to convert that for now. In this situation, Swiftify converts the code, other ones such as iSwift will report an error in the code and will not convert it.

Out of all of the products that I have used to support design-to-development handoffs, Zeplin is my favorite. It’s pretty lightweight and easy to use (once you get the hang of it). Zeplin also has a smooth interface and is, generally, clearer to use than other tools, such as InVision. Plus, all of the plug-ins that you can use with Zeplin have supported the design-development relationship and workflows in which I’ve been involved in more efficient, clear, and effective ways than I’ve seen with any other product.

• good ROI, saves a lot of time.

• We're using the free plan, so it fits in our needs, although we're limited to create only one project at a time
• Sketch has some plugins that offers exactly what Zeplin does, for free
• The integration with design apps (Sketch, Photoshop, XD) and collaboration (Slack and Trello) helps our team to better communicate and be notified on every update
