Hello everyone!
I’m working on a different project where the goal is to “generate” clickable prototypes. So I thought, it would be cool to generate them as penpot files so they can be edited & modified. Unfortunately it’s very hard to find the documentation on how the two formats work (.penpot and the zipped svg+json).
While trying to figure out the format, I did the following (on macOS 12):
- Exported a simple penpot project as SVG+JSON (zipped)
- Unzipped + modified the SVG
- Zip the folder
- Import into penpot
Unfortunately penpot doesn’t recognize the new zip as something to import at all, where as if I simply do export + import (without unzipping etc) it works.
Would be great to understand why this doesn’t work. Maybe the native macOS zip action creates some kind of different zip than what penpot expects?
I am running penpot locally on docker, so maybe that also contributes.
Many thanks in advance Any help appreciated.
