When you're ready to share or hand off a design, Flowstep lets you export it as a static image — either a JPG or a PNG. Both formats are widely supported across design tools, presentation software, and browsers, so you can take your AI-generated designs wherever you need them.

## How to export your design

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your design">
    Navigate to the design you want to export inside Flowstep.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the export menu">
    Locate the export option in the toolbar or design panel. Select it to open the export settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your format">
    Select either **JPG** or **PNG** depending on your use case (see the comparison below).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download the file">
    Confirm your selection and download the exported image to your device.
  </Step>

## JPG vs PNG: which format should you use?

|                  | JPG                                                  | PNG                                                          |
| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Best for**     | Sharing previews, presentations, stakeholder reviews | Designs with transparent backgrounds, high-fidelity handoffs |
| **File size**    | Smaller — faster to share via email or messaging     | Larger — retains full image detail                           |
| **Transparency** | Not supported                                        | Supported                                                    |
| **Quality**      | Slightly compressed                                  | Lossless — no quality reduction                              |

<Tip>
  If you're pasting your design into a slide deck or sending a quick preview to a client, JPG is usually the right choice. If you need crisp edges or a transparent background — for example, to overlay the design on another image — use PNG.
</Tip>

## Export code

Beyond images, the **Code** button exports a screen as React + Tailwind code — copy a snippet, or download the full bundle as a ZIP. Bundles are self-contained: images used in the design (including ones you attached in the chat panel) are included in a `public/assets/` folder with the code referencing them by local path, so the export runs as-is.

Downloaded files — images and code bundles alike — are named after the screen they belong to (falling back to the file name if the screen is unnamed), which keeps exports easy to identify when you're working with many screens.

<Note>
  If you need to take your design into a vector editing workflow, copy it directly into Figma instead. See [Copy Flowstep designs into Figma instantly](/figma-integration).
