This is SO AWESOME to see a front end dev perspective on Figma - I am obsessed. If you haven't dug into auto-layout in there, you'll be mind blown.
I'm really glad you found it made you more consistent - was that because you were pushed to 'build the file' properly with the aim of making a design system?
What pushed you to explore Figma in the first place?
My main goal when I started creating the design system was to be able to extract everything I had done in my website to be able to use it in other types of assets, socialmedia cards, slides, banners, ... so I wouldn't have to fight with external templates, from Canva for example, to look like my brand.
The fact of choosing Figma was because in Illustrator I didn't have the necessary functionalities to do web design and because I didn't have a Mac, so Sketch was not an option for me, I chose it for being online and in the end, multiplatform. And the truth is that I am very happy with how it works! Love it!
