About Figma

Figma is the leading collaborative design platform that runs entirely in your browser. It's where product teams design, prototype, and gather feedback all in one place - no file syncing, no version conflicts, no plugins required. What sets Figma apart is real-time collaboration. Multiple designers can work on the same file simultaneously, seeing each other's cursors and changes instantly. Product managers, developers, and stakeholders can leave comments directly on designs, turning feedback cycles from days into minutes. The design tools are professional-grade. Vector networks, auto layout, components with variants, and a powerful constraint system let you create everything from simple icons to complex design systems. FigJam, the companion whiteboarding tool, handles brainstorming, user flows, and planning. For developers, Figma's Dev Mode is a game-changer. Inspect designs, copy CSS, and see specs without switching tools. Plugins extend functionality with everything from accessibility checkers to animation tools. Figma's component system supports design at scale. Build a design system once, and updates propagate everywhere. Variants let you manage button states, icon sizes, and component options cleanly. Libraries can be shared across teams and projects.
