VS Code has two ways to save a file. The first way is the way VS Code itself, and every extension I have ever used, saves a file. The second I have only ever seen used in the Figma extension.
Normally in VS Code, when you go to save a file, you get a system dialog that let’s you pick where the file goes. Figma’s extension could be using this, but for some reason it instead uses a different method, which forces you to memorize the exact path to where you want to save the file, and then TYPE THAT ENTIRE PATH IN BY HAND!
For a company that’s central to good UI, this a terrible user experience. And I’m sure it’s easy to fix: just use the normal file saving API instead of whatever strange one your devs found.
