[miggi from figma @miggi]

Started getting some simple answers on @figma MCP for those just getting started and in Edu. feat. @actuallyakbar

Ask a Developer Advocate part 1: "What is Figma MCP?" "How do you go from canvas to code?"

[Akbar @actuallyakbar]

can't wait to judge what y'all make during the @figma x @contra Makeathon!

You have through March 2nd to submit for a chance at $100k in prizes. Can’t wait to see what you Make!

[Figma @figma]

Will your interactive design shape the future?

The Figma Makeathon starts now.

[Akbar @actuallyakbar]

I'll see you there!

[Kiro @kirodotdev]

Designers and devs, this one’s for you 🎨

We’re going live Wednesday at 9:30 am PT with @Figma to show how the Figma power streamlines your design-to-development workflows

From mapping code components to generating architecture diagrams.
Less back-and-forth. More shipping.

What's it like working on a cross-functional team?

On Thursday, I'm answering that question with @Spotify as part of @figma's Early Career Week. We'll discuss how they collaborate across design, product, content and engineering.

Are you looking for ways AI and design can come together?

I’m teaming up with @github to show how @figma's MCP Server connects design + code — bringing Figma context into GitHub Copilot.

See you there! https://t.co/njUVyd5JOc

[GitHub @github]

Design-to-code just got smarter. 🤖

Learn how the new Figma MCP server and GitHub Copilot can help developers generate accurate, design-aligned code—fast. 🚀

Join us on November 18.👇

Fresh off of Schema, @figma is coming to Boston! I'm hosting a developer meetup at @samadams Downtown Taproom - an "ack-athon" to acknowledge how AI is changing our craft. Come share what you're learning with the community! RSVP at https://t.co/1cqWfGklHQ

[Visual Studio Code @code]

🎨 On this week's VS Code Live @actuallyakbar will demo how the remote @Figma MCP server and new Code Connect updates bring design and codebase context into VS Code

I had so much fun jamming on this video with @miggi. guess we can say we did a lil' time with anthropic 😅

[Claude @claudeai]

Turn design into code with Claude Code + @figma.

Through MCP, Claude sees your mockup at the data level—component hierarchies, design tokens, auto-layout rules—and translates it into production-ready code.

[miggi from figma @miggi]

Make to MCP server!

So cool to see a @figma launch vid @actuallyakbar and I worked on, on a Verge article! With my music on it!
