Very excited to release my 3D Extrude shader for @figma to the community! Grab the finished shader and examples file here to start using it in your designs: https://t.co/aRDAZyk5g4

Would love to see what you all make with it!

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

So excited for this! 🫶🏻🎉

Mark your calendars. See you in Bangalore.

Everything you saw today: code, motion, shaders, your own tools... It all lives together in the canvas. For the first time, in one place.

Today we announced ways to:
→ explore with code
→ generate with Weave
→ build plugins and shaders with the Figma agent
→ animate with Figma Motion

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

What did you wanted to build? Go build them now!

[Figma @figma]

Generative plugins, built by you and the Figma agent

Describe the tool you need: behaviors, controls, parameters and get exactly what you want for your workflow

[Dylan Field @zoink]

For years, the design industry has talked about "design vs code"

And tools (including Figma!) have forced a choice.

But this is a false debate. Code isn't the opposite of design. Code is a material for design.

So we're bringing code to the Figma canvas with Code Layers.

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

First-time Config speaker. Still processing it.

@wargewesen and I are running a hands-on learning lab on Agent Skills & agentic workflows at Config 2026. Laura's one of the sharpest designer advocates I know, and this one's worth showing up for.

SF, June 23–25. See you there 🧡

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

Start from your production site, riff on designs and send it back to code. Roundtrip from anywhere! 🌟

[Figma @figma]

Imagine a world where you could copy/paste websites into editable Figma layers (jk you don’t have to imagine you can do this now with our Chrome extension)

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

Check before you send those designs to your developers. Streamline handoff! 🤝

[Figma @figma]

Check Designs: Keep every file synced to your design system with

→ Variable & style suggestions
→ Color contrast suggestions
→ Library mismatch detection
→ Detached component detection

Slots with restrictions - Enable your design system guidelines seamlessly! I’ve heard so many requests for this, so excited that this is out for all of you to try now! ✨

[Figma @figma]

No more slots gone wild

→ Set minimum and maximum layers
→ Only allow preferred instances
→ Display an empty slot by default
→ Set fill as default

[Figma @figma]

Figma Make, now on your local code

In limited beta starting today, you can visually edit and ship changes by connecting Make to your codebase

At Figma, we use our products to design in every way: design layers, prototypes, and now, production code

Gridmaxxing! 🎉 Do more with grids now!

[Figma @figma]

[DANN© @DannPetty]

This is becoming the best time ever to be a designer.

[Manish Kumar @Manishalexin]

So excited that this is finally out! 🙌 Now collaborate with the agents right in the canvas alongside your team! Can’t wait to see what you build with it! 🎉

[Figma @figma]

wdym of course there’s an agent right on the design canvas that’s fluent in Figma and native to the way your team works
