Feature Suggestion: Lightweight 3D Tools in Figma

I’d love to see Figma explore basic native 3D functionality — not full modeling, but something lightweight and useful for UI/UX designers.

For example, a tool that allows 2D layers to be "extruded" into simple 3D objects, with the ability to rotate them along axes like X, Y, and Z (ZX, YX, etc.). Maybe a generator that converts 2D shapes into pseudo-3D models with light shading, shadow, and basic rotation/animation capabilities.

It would be amazing to preview UI components or icons in a 3D-ish environment inside Figma itself, especially for designers who can’t afford external tools or plugins.

Even if this is introduced in a limited or lightweight way — it could be a creative breakthrough for many of us. Thanks for considering this!
