Introduction:
I recently attended Figma's annual conference, Config 23, virtually. It was a great event with a lot of interesting talks and workshops. But the highlight for me was the release of six new updates to Figma.
Updates:
The new updates include:
Variables: This new feature allows you to create reusable values that can be used throughout your designs. This can save you a lot of time and effort, especially if you're working on complex projects.
Advanced prototyping: This update makes it easier to create interactive prototypes that are more realistic and engaging. You can now add animations, transitions, and conditional logic to your prototypes.
Autolayout updates: These updates make it easier to create responsive designs that look great on any device. You can now wrap elements, set minimum and maximum sizes, and more.
Dev Mode: This new mode allows you to inspect and edit the underlying code of your designs. This can be helpful for debugging problems or making custom changes.
Font picker updates: These updates make it easier to find and preview fonts in Figma. You can now search for fonts by name, category, or weight.
File browser updates: These updates make it easier to find and manage files in Figma. You can now filter files by type, date, and other criteria.
Conclusion:
Overall, I was really impressed with the new updates to Figma. They make the design process more efficient and productive, and they open up new possibilities for creating interactive and engaging prototypes. I'm excited to start using these new features in my own work.
Call to action:
If you're a Figma user, I encourage you to check out the new updates. They're a great way to improve your design workflow and create more amazing products.
