Most of what you guys build in Figma and co can be easily built with HTML n CSS & co. Make una calm down small.

I hate working with complete Figma files. I prefer integrating some assets, etc.

I also hate the Figma converted to HTML file and the way the assets are sliced and scattered every where.

I may b wrong, I stand to be corrected.

I don't understand? What's your point?

Make we no design again? If this is so there wouldn't have been a product design career.

I don’t understand this statements by the OP.

Figma designs are there to guide the frontend dev on how the product should look like.

As to all those gimmicks of converting figma designs to html, it is for very basic sites. If them born any figma designer, make he come replicate reactive sites where content changes with many variable inputs.

If your frontend is being challenged by ordinary figma designers, then, your frontend journey is still long.

For me a real industry standard app shud be able to build an active site on it's platform no need to export to oza platforms.

I can't build a dead UI in Figma then export to Frame works to bring it to life.

I prefer doing everything in sync. HTML, CSS, JS, even back end stuffs.

We diff Sha.

You are not thinking from the Product Design POV, stakeholders want to see the UI/UX before committing code.

Forget assumptions


Why build a dead UI with figma, when u can still build a living website with oda tools on the go?
Re: Figma Guys My New Enemies by LikeAking: 2:52pm On Sep 24, 2022

War against figma guys. Dey must learn HTML N CSS. Learn to build a real front end.

TBH Figma n co will be amazing if guy's can build a working front end on it. Like advanced drag n drop builders.

This is dum-b, figma isn't a gimmick bro. I don't use it but as a Frontend Engineer you'll need designs that standard css animations may be overcomplicated to do when you can just create an SVG animation instead.

Though not all figma designs can translate to real development. The flashier it is the more nobody wants the headache to code it into the frontend.

Here's an example, you create a figma for a SPA where there's a car mockup that opens the engine, door,etc the lower you scroll across the screen. Can you code that for mobile? Nope. Desktop, probably and even then is it worth the slow load times the website would have or would such a system be easy to debug?

Bro, nobody sent you to learn coding. A lot of figma designers can code by the way and your argument is the same for people who say WordPress developers aren't real developers because it's just drag and drop. It's deeper than that.

Even FAANG still sketch before coding.

Will you first code, show the client and when corrections are required, start all over?

Design is templated first, locked before it is forwarded for programming.

Have you worked in a team before? How did you handle standardisation?

How easy can one implement Figma designs in React or next J's?

Judging by the component based nature of react?

I get ya point.

Mine is, it will be beta if Figma can have full web dev. To avoid the double work. Every thing in one place.

Full web dev? Figma is a design tool. It lets us see how the ideas could look like before you even write a single line of code.

Have you heard of MVC Architecture?

I would suggest you do more research.
