Figma Dev Mode
Today I learned to use Figma Dev Mode in VS Code. I got a notification in my feed reader yesterday about the Figma Dev Mode1 announcement so I dove in to give it a test run last night. I’m in because of how it’ll allow me to speed up the design iteration process without having to leave my text editor. Figma for VS Code gives me the same features of browser developer tools that I can share with anyone in real time instead of sharing my screen on video calls. It’ll give my less technical collaborators an easy way to make adjustments and comments without all of the screenshots in emails.
