Figma (figma.com) is a design tool. Figma was founded by Dylan Field.

DESCRIPTION

The homepage of Figma had moving graphics with a demonstration of what the tool does when you use it. Everything on the homepage was large/zoomed in more than average. As I scrolled down, there was a lot of color use and more moving graphics, this time showing all the companies that have supposedly recommended the tool being automatically moved across the screen. The mouse cursor graphic on hover seemed dated, but overall, it was a design that tried to be modern. There was a big “Get started” button above the fold. 4/16/2024
