Figma for Developers — 20-Second Explainer for Beginners

If you’re new to web development and have heard of Figma but don’t really know what it does or why developers use it — this is for you!

I’ve made a super short video (30 seconds) explaining how Figma helps developers speed up their UI workflows, create wireframes, and collaborate with designers.

Here’s the video: https://youtube.com/shorts/rKfZ-OKgX_M?si=Skn-MZ6TfcU6yndg

🛠 TL;DR — Figma isn’t just a “designers’ toy.” Developers can use it for:
Wireframing project layouts

Mapping API structures

Smooth developer-designer handoffs

UI component design & documentation

If you’re still writing UI ideas in Notion or MS Paint — Figma will save you hours of work.

➡️ Curious: How many of you here actively use Figma in your dev workflow?

Let’s discuss!
