I know that Dev Mode is still in beta testing, but when I try to get it to work in vscode using the extension it takes me to the vscode app and then shows me a pop up in the app saying that I should accept the terms of service in Figma TOS website. But when I click on it it leads me to my project instead of TOS page.

So basically im stuck in a loop where I cant use devmode to vscode plugin.

If you don’t see ‘Log In’ option. then

  1. While in VS Code, Press Shift+Command+P to Show and Run Commands.
  2. Select Figma: Log out from the list of options in the search bar.

You can now log in and it should fix the problem

click the Figma extension icon on vs code left panel after installing the extension, then it will ask you to login to Figma and that’s pretty much it.

If you are are stuck in a loop of VS Code asking you to “Accept terms and conditions” please log into VS Code before connecting in Figma.

You can log in to the VS Code extension by:

  1. Clicking the Figma icon in the sidebar of VS Code
  2. Clicking “Log In” and following the instructions
  3. You can then click “Open in VS Code” in Figma however, you may need to accept our Terms of Use to allow VSCode to connect.
  4. In order to accept the Terms of Service, you’ll need to click “Next” in the Dev Mode modal.

Amazing, thanks. Totally didn’t see that. I suspect the flow I and the OP were stuck in is a bug however.
