Why did Figma become so popular?
>>106762389I can't be the only one who goes "Figma balls" in their head whenever they encounter the name.
>>106762389Because Adobabe pushed their luck.
>>106762389Cause they're cute anime figures
>>106762389Because it works?
>>106762447Surely there has to be other software that works well enough>>106762426Then why aren't there hardline competitors for every Adobe product right now
>>106762389Figma balls LMAO>>106762408Meds

>>106762389makes non-technical people feel like they're doing something productive
>>106762826>makes non-technical people feel like they're doing something productiveI feel like would enjoy a series of conversations on these tech industry non-tech tools that got big .never used Figma though. just know about its existence. I was an SRE until getting laid off
>>106762408I accidentally called it ligma at work for the longest time.
>>106762389What's figma?
>>106762389It's cheap and amazingly powerful. I used it to create a clickable prototype which fooled some rich gen X faggots into giving me money for a start up. >>106762826Pretty much this but it's nice to be able to spell out exactly how you want your UX to look and sketch sucks balls. >>106764146A UX design tool.
I had to use this for a uni project and it was fucking horrible. I'm sitting there fighting against its retarded dragondrop UI and thinking "I could just have AI make this in Vue from sketched wireframes in 15 seconds"What's the point, even for non-technicals?
>>106764146a good smile figure series
figma balls lol
>>106762389Its only good for ui/ux design. Outside of ui design, framework, prototyping, alladatshit, I cant imagine people using figma for anything else
Figma balls
Who the hell is Steve Jobs?

>Fugma tugma sugma lugma
>>106762848I think Figma is just overused and underdone.Most UI is simple and doesn't need Figma.Shitty BAs making a slopped together Figma without precision just wastes time since now the devs have to clarify if a mistake is real or not or worse the QA thinks it's a mistake when a dev didn't and now has to clarify with the BA which goes back to the devs on small things such as capitalisation, inconsistent punctuation.I'm unsure if it does well on more complicated UI since I've never put anything that wasn't slop together in my short career.I feel like someone who would give you a more complicated ui should have at least some sort of 2d artist skills.
