Figma is an online service for interface development and prototyping with the ability to organize real-time collaboration. It is positioned by its creators as a primary competitor to Adobe's software products.
Figma is suitable for creating both simple prototypes and design systems, as well as complex projects (mobile applications, portals). In 2018, the platform became one of the fastest-growing tools for developers and designers.
Currently, an unofficial Electron version of the online service Figma for Linux systems is under development, based on Electron. Full Figma functionality has already been implemented, along with exclusive features for the Linux build that are not available on other systems.
List of innovations:
1. Implementation of the application settings window.
2. Interface scaling.
3. Tab scaling.
4. Support for system fonts and addition of custom font directories.
5. Enable and disable the menu.
6. Enable and disable the header window.
Currently, there is a launchpad repository, and the application is available in the snap store.
Developers invite anyone interested to join the development of the application, which aims to provide the Linux community with modern interface design methods.
