Published a new plugin 🤖 "Import CSS shadows, create Figma styles" allows you to do just that. You can create variables too Recently I was building a UI kit from an existing website and rebuilding shadows from CSS was really slow, so built this! www.figma.com/community/pl...

I've updated the CSS variables Figma plugin! Noooow, you can export AND import CSS variables. Copy, paste, or upload a CSS file, and it will generate your variables including aliasing ◇ Hopefully makes variable migration a lot easier www.figma.com/community/pl...

Sat down with the Figma team to talk about craft – what is it, how do we define it, and how can you get better at it? This is part of a mini series called Blend Mode, with two other videos on the design process and users coming out in the next few weeks www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXQZ...
