About Figma
Figma is a cloud-native design platform where product teams create UI designs, interactive prototypes, and shared component libraries in real time. It runs entirely in the browser (and via desktop app), enabling simultaneous multi-user editing. It is widely used by product designers, engineers, and product managers to hand off specs and collaborate on design systems. Figma also includes FigJam (online whiteboard) and an AI-assisted design mode.
