Since Figma is made in Electron, besides any os-specific features, it wouldnt be difficult to build a Linux version
Where I work, everyone uses Ubuntu. When I share it to the team I either need to export, or rely on the web version.

To the devs that might read this, please don’t rely only on X11 support.
Modern mainstream distros such as Ubuntu, popular desktop environments like GNOME, KDE Plasma 5, all use Wayland by default for quite a while.
Wayland support can be enabled far easier when building, but not every Electron app can be configured for Wayland support after.

+1 Figma is the only reason that makes me stay on bloated windows. 

Because of the nearing end of university and the nearing end of security updates for Windows 10 I will move in a couple of months to Linux and if there will be no Linux version of Figma by then, I’ll switch to a different tool.
I have seen Gravit Designer (gravit.io) rise and fall (i.e. getting bought up by Corel Draw and eliminated), and will not sell my heart to a software, no matter how good it is.

I really don’t understand why Figma has so many neat tools for developers but neglect the OS used by a huge segment of the developer population.

Would be a huge win to have Figma for linux

We Deserve a Native Figma Client for Linux! 💻🚀

Dear Figma Team and Community,

As a long-time user of Figma, I want to express my strong support for the creation of a native Linux client. 🌟

Why is this so important? 🤔

• Increasing Linux User Base: More and more designers and developers are switching to Linux due to its open-source nature and performance benefits. A native Linux client would be welcomed with open arms by the growing community! 🌍

• Improved Performance: Native applications are optimized for specific platforms, making them faster and more efficient. While the browser-based version of Figma works, a native client would reduce resource consumption and increase overall user experience. ⚡

• Offline Accessibility: While Figma is fantastic online, we all know how important it is to have the flexibility of working offline—a native Linux client could make this possible without relying on a browser. 🌐❌

• Consistency Across Platforms: Currently, Figma's native clients are available for macOS and Windows, but Linux is often left out. We deserve the same experience as other platforms, without having to jump through hoops. 🔄

• Electron Frameworks are Already Here: Applications like VS Code already utilize frameworks like Electron to build cross-platform apps for multiple Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, Arch). If VS Code can do it, there is no reason why Figma can't too! 📦✨

• A Dedicated Linux Experience: Linux users are a passionate and dedicated community, and providing them with a native Figma client would further cement Figma's commitment to supporting all platforms. 🔧💡

We are Ready for It! 😎

Many of us have been waiting patiently for a native solution, and we truly believe that Figma has the potential to make this happen. The demand is there, the community is there, and we are eager to see Figma expand its reach to Linux. 💬💪

Please consider this request as a call to action, not just for us, but for the future of design on Linux. Let’s make it happen! 🙏

#NativeFigmaForLinux 🐧

As a full stack developer on Ubuntu I can confirm I’m struggling with web version of Figma. It’s requires GPU acceleration (awful w/o it) which then often leads to annoying delay lags for the whole Chrome browser.
Native Linux client would solve this issue and many others.
 

Still waiting Figma.

Developers use Figma too

Just make one for Linux guys.

Why there is still no Linux app guys?
