    Hello fellow designers.

    I’m Vic, I have been designing software and websites since I finished my study years. I am currently Product Design Manager and secretly a UX-Designer for a big german software company.

    We have decided to move towards figma because we saw a great need in redesigning all of our products and no other tool has offered us the flexibility Figma offers.

    Therefore I am happy to be part of this community and can’t wait for the features Figma brings to help us grow our business.

    Hi all 👋, my name is Johan, I’m a UI/UX designer from Belgium.

    I’ve been using Figma since beta and have been a fan ever since. I closely follow updates to Figma; I give Figma workshops and I spread the word about this awesome application.

    This forum is cool! Loving the attention to detail.

    Hi!

    I’m so glad that Figma has decided to host its own community.

    I’ve spent long stretches using Axure as a primary tool, and one of the best thing about it is their forums. Ask a cogent question and expect an answer within an hour or two. It’s completely cordial and full of people who genuinely want to solve your problem.

    Figma should be so lucky. I’m rooting for such a community to evolve here
    .
    Until then, see you in the peanut gallery!

    Hello Everyone, I too am glad to see Figma create its own community. I’m a long time (i.e. seasoned) UXD, IA, IxD and design tool user (all of them but primarily Figma, Sketch, XD, Axure). I’ve used each of these tools for long stretches of time so feel unbiased when I say Figma is the best of breed. I used to create full-blown interactive prototypes in Axure, but not many teams can spend that amount of time in an Agile environment now. I think the upcoming Figma interactive components may take us part way to Axure’s prototyping power (sans variables and conditionals of course). Current working as a Senior Information Architect at UPS and introducing Figma to our Digital Experience group. Cheers, Ben
