Add it pls Figma
+1 for gradient / variable integration. Real annoyance for us at the moment
- 1 here. Figma, add gradient support to color variables.
Hi guys! This feature âbinding color variables to gradientsâwas officially announced at Figmaâs Framework 2024 event last week, along with support for typography variables. 
You can find the playground file here: https://www.figma.com/community/file/1234936397107899445
Hey All, @Gyongy is correct! We launched the ability to bind variables to gradients on April 16th! 
You can now apply a color variable to the different gradient stops. And then, you can create a style for that gradient, which will then update across different modes.

Cool but we donât want style anymore, we want variable. And there are a lot of work to do on variables !! We donât need a Figma Power Point⌠Please work on variable instead.

Bumping. This shouldnât be marked as âLaunchedâ. Variables being applied in styles is great and there are a plethora of workarounds. But now that variables are directly syncing with developers and code, we need more flexibility to make variables viable a long term solution to our products.
So please. Continue fleshing out variables, like adding the ability to create variables that are themselves a gradient.
If anything, let us have a variable be multiple purpose between modes. Maybe for mode 1 itâs simply a colour variable, but let mode 2 be a string instead that is code for a gradient, and let Figma parse that? Then weâre still synced with our developers 1:1
