Plugins

Daniel Destefanis from Figma made a plugin that shows how text layers within a selection are styled (or unstyled). This plugin complements the existing native Figma feature Selection colors and is a great way to see what layers aren’t using styles or select layers by font. Read more in Daniel’s Twitter thread.

In addition to setting a single color with the plugin above, this one defines color scales: ​“Use this Plugin to generate Color Palettes with Variations in the OKLCH Color Space. The shades can vary across Lightness, Chroma, Hue. The ability to control these individual parameters makes it perfect for building palettes to be used in interface design, because you can use the shades that vary in these parameters to establish hierarchy, contrast, attention, etc.”

Finally, a solid color picker that lets you control color in LCH for both fills and strokes! ​“This simple color picker allows you to use the LCH color space in your designs with ease. The LCH color space is perceptually uniform and significantly simplifies creating and modifying color systems.”

Cool new plugin for creating perspective grids. It lets you adjust the grid angle and customize both horizontal and vertical lines.

Blocks is a Figma plugin that features a library of components so you can create low-fidelity wireframes with your whole team.

As someone who designed and coded a fair share of emails over the years, I’m curious to try this plugin when it becomes available. See the article ​“The Future of Email Design is Here: Streamline Your Workflow with Figma and Email Love” for the vision behind it.

An AI-powered wireframe generator — describe your vision, and it will design it in a single click.

A Figma and FigJam widget for documenting team decisions and the evolution of changes.

This is a pretty wild experiment, started with a question: ​“What if you could design like a developer?” Name your layers with Tailwind classes, then run the plugin to instantly update the style. Why? Because you can, that’s why!

Confusingly enough, this new plugin by Anh is unrelated to another plugin with the same name I shared in issue #160. See examples on Twitter and choose which one works best for your needs.

New plugin from Meng To: ​“AI Text Generator is a super handy Figma plug-in made for designers who want to rewrite their text in a couple of clicks. It uses OpenAI GPT‑4 to give you smart, creative text suggestions—think names, titles, or even Lorem Ipsum dummy text—right where you need them. It automatically detects the selected text’s length and generates the perfect amount of words for your alternatives. You can also add custom prompts, which is useful for more control, generate any type of text, in different languages and amount of words.”

Scan local text styles, convert their properties into typographic variables, and bind them back to the text styles. Christine Vallaure recommends this plugin in her recent video and shows how to use it.

“The first visual tracking documentation tool that enables everyone in your team to create, access and understand analytics events in seconds. No technical skills or endless spreadsheets required.” See the demo video.

A new plugin by Vijay Verma for generating pleasant color palettes and gradients in one click.

A new plugin from Pablo Stanley is an AI design assistant that turns simple prompts into websites. The promise is to ​“get your design 80% of the way, so you have time to obsess over the final little details”.

Easily generate a frame with progressive blur, controllable by a set of parameters.

A free beta of the design system generator. Figr Identity helps set up styles and variables for color, typography, spacing, grids, radius, and shadows. Automate tedious work by generating a scalable component library and easily managing your design system.

Weavely is the AI form builder for Figma. You can design a form in Figma, and Weavely will generate a working web form from it. It supports answer piping, conditional logic, AI form generation, and more.

The new Dev Mode plugin for instantly generating React components from selected nodes. See how it works and why Vijay made it in the Twitter thread.

Free plugin for generating linear, radial, and conic gradients interpolated in a variety of color spaces, yielding richer, more brilliant gradients. Live updating so you can easily view and tweak the results.
