The next year’s Config will be in San Francisco, CA, on June 23–25. The call for speakers is open until November 7, 2025.
Dylan also joined the Latent Space to discuss letting designers build with Figma Make, how Figma can be the context repository for aesthetics in the age of vibe coding, and why design is your only differentiator now.
Dylan joins the TBPN show to chat about evaluating new AI models, the trajectory of Figma Make, and why human judgment and taste still matter even as AI accelerates execution. They also discuss leadership, his views on open-source models and emerging hardware, and MCPs.
“Rolling out to Enterprise plans over the next few weeks, Organization admins can now enable or disable AI features for individual workspaces. When toggled on, AI functionality will be available in all files within that workspace.”
Dylan Field shows a couple of projects he built in Figma Make with pre-release Sonnet 4.5. He notes that the new model is very good at planning and was able to precisely transform a Figma design into a functional code with a single prompt.
Designer Advocate Brett McMillin is joined by members of the Figma AI and Anthropic teams to discuss the integration of Claude Sonnet 4.5 into Figma Make. This new model from Anthropic is praised for its significant improvements in design outputs, reasoning through updates, and overall performance.
Jake Cooper: “When something is labored on, obsessed over, etc, it has no choice but to become of quality, because we give a part of ourselves to it.” This, also: “We must choose to build quality things. They will take longer, more work, but in return we will be able to enjoy a life full of rich tastes and experiences.”
Wes Bos from the Syntax podcast and Adam Wathan from Tailwind CSS dig into why every single website AI puts out is purple.
Dylan Field gives his first interview since Figma’s big IPO, joining ACCESS Podcast to talk all things design, AI, and what’s next for Figma.

Another demo of using the new MCP server with Claude Code.
Watch Lee Robinson go from design to code with GPT-5-Codex and Agent.
Thomas Lowry, Director of Advocacy at Figma, shares three best practices for designers to give developers—and the AI agents they use—the context they need to go from design to production.

Kris Rasmussen, CTO of Figma: “Today we’re announcing updates to the Figma MCP server and Code Connect that make it possible to bring Figma design context anywhere you work—whether it’s in your IDE, your AI agent, or your prototypes. These updates make your design context—context about how your design system is structured, how your codebase is written, and how your team builds products—more portable and powerful, helping you move from idea to product with less friction.”
This update includes three major releases. Remote access to the Figma MCP server from your IDE, an AI coding agent, or a browser-based model. Bring the underlying code from a Figma Make file to your codebase using the Figma MCP server. Code Connect’s new in-app mapping experience lets you browse components inside Figma, map them to the right code and file, and see which are linked or missing.
Speaking of Cursor, Lee Robinson recorded a six-part video series on AI foundations. It’s designed for beginners to learn concepts like tokens, context, and agents. The entire course is free and just 1 hour long.
Peter Yang interviews Meaghan Choi, a design lead for Claude Code, about her Figma-to-code workflow and the top 3 design use cases for Claude Code.
Advocates Anthony and Duncan discuss how to keep a design system aligned with code: structuring components and tokens for alignment; streamlining design-to-code with tools like Code Connect; confidently maintaining, updating, and scaling your design system; and laying the foundation for more effective AI workflows.
Andrew Gosine, Principal Product Designer at Slack, walks through how he organizes design iterations in Figma in an interview with Jay.
