What people previously said about Figma

“Compare that to trying to stumble through Figma to find the right layer to export and then modify it to work with whatever stack they’re building with.”

“I genuinely don’t understand why exporting icons from Figma seems to be such a recurring problem when handing designs off to developers.”

“I really need my Figma account this week or I'll miss the first assignment!”

“It’s like a child of Figma and the native macOS screenshot app.Looking for a feedback”

“What is one Figma feature you use constantly that beginners often overlook?”

“My Pause Menu Concept - Made In Figma”

“Can you tell me more on the exact workflow with Figma , I created some designs there and took screenshots , send to Claude for it to build.  However, it didn't create the exact elements”

“Claude Code w/ Figma is the BEST”

“I love the idea for using Figma for games”

“Figma is not an app designed for printed work. It’s for screen based viewing, so of course trying to produce a print file out of it is going to cause problems. It’s just not made for it.”

“Figma native PDF export results in uneditable "Type 3" fonts. Why is this so resistant to standard PDF editors?”

“Works like a charm.To give more details, the designer created the system in Figma and created a guideline document for a human to follow on how to use the system. I then gave those files to Claude Fable using Claude Design to turn it into code.Then when I need to do anything design-related in the project, I make Claude follow the system.”

“But investing in learning a separate design tool, be it Figma or Illustrator, will definitely pay off in the long run.”

“I would love to know if there is anything Figma does / AI it offers which would provide me good mock ups / ideas etc to guide the process, e.g. reference images, websites, fonts, other information provided.”

“Such a wildly amazing decision from Figma.”

“who told u to learn figma thats the first question? whats ur aim?”

“Wish they would move off SheerID. I’ve never had a good experience with them for OpenAI, Figma, Spotify and other places.”

“What works better for me is treating it as an iterative loop: give Claude the Figma/Jira context, let it build, compare the actual screen to the design, then feed back very specific differences.”

“Is anyone else having major issues with Figma's student account verification, or is it just me?”

“Why this Auto Layout in Figma does not work?”

“I honestly haven't used the Photoshop or Figma options but if they're anything like like the AE <> AI workflow, then I'm sure they're great”

“A handful of times, it will tell me it "read the Figma file" but all it did was look at the cover image and then throw its hands up in confusion.”

“Figma also allows them to jump in and make specific comments or changes, so it’s much better for that sort of design review framework than AE.”

“Great idea using Figma AI - thanks for your reply!”

“After effects fucking sucks, is imprecise, and crazy slow for design, especially UI. Figma is the shit. Overlord puts the content into AE.”

“Figma will definitely let you work on UI stuff much faster and iterations are a breeze cause you can create a grid of them on the infinite canvas.”

“Otherwise you’re looking at making design harder by forcing AE to do things that PS or Ai or Figma do intrinsically”

“Figma makes it very easy and fast process to create designs”

“I’ve seen a few job posts that have a figma requirement and I think ‘should I learn figma?’ Then I forget about it for some reason.”

“But some projects are complex and I know there will be rounds of feedback, then I use storyboards in Figma to speed up that part of the design, rather than waiting on rendering it a dozen times.”

“Are 3,000 Figma AI credits/month enough for a designer using Figma Make + Agents?”

“A large amount of the jobs I get involve designs needing to be pulled from figma. You don't need to know how to design in it per se but you need to know how to navigate and extract from it”

“I understand that all Motion Designer are not Graphic Designer, but honestly, you will never be faster than someone knowing Photoshop/Illustrator or even Figma to design.”

“Figma is much more friendly for creating more complex designs from scratch than After Effects.”

“Why should I learn Figma if I already know how to use After Effects?”

“I have a pretty robust FM site. Now (of course) I’m out of credits. Can I update the site like I would any other site that I have access to?”

“Curious, Figma recently added "Check design" when you mark something for dev. It's been working fine for me as a clean up step.”

“Ever since variables landed in Figma, I've tried to use them for everything. In practice I ended up with a hybrid: some values properly bound to tokens, others typed in by hand in a hurry — 8 here because it looked right, 16 there because I was iterating fast.”

“Ok… @Dell XPS with @OmarchyLinux and @figma may have just becomes my design setup of choice.”

“is anyone getting issue with Figma-MCP with claude? its not fetching design from figma to claude.”

“Holy shit... Claude just killed Figma for vibe coders.”

“If you're on a paid plan and not watching your credits, Figma's built-in is probably fine. Mine's for everyone else.”

“Figma already has an auto-convert to vector function.”

“Pretty awesome to see this presented in @figma Slides, with a Grok Bot that uses Figma Slides via MCP :)”

“Got tired of designing dark mode in Figma.”

“A relatively trivial task for Figma make I would imagine.”

“I’ve actually been surprised this year how many of our clients know and want to use a Figma for brand hand off. It’s funny how things are changing.”

“Feels like @figma MCP + vibe coding is quietly eating Framer's market.”

“What is the best Figma to Code converter?”

“Best workflow for Figma <-> Illustrator.”
