Figma
The industry-standard, browser-based collaborative interface design tool used by teams to create wireframes, UI/UX designs, and interactive prototypes.
What it is
Figma changed UI design by bringing it into the browser, allowing multiple designers to work simultaneously on the same canvas like a Google Doc. It is the central hub for modern product development, utilized for creating design systems, high-fidelity mockups, and developer handoffs.
When you would use it
You use Figma when you need to design, prototype, and share user interfaces and design systems collaboratively before writing any code.
