Jun 26, 2024, 04:54 PM

Figma has unveiled a major redesign of its interface, incorporating AI-powered design tools, during the #Config2024 keynote. The new features aim to enhance user experience by making the design process more efficient and intuitive. The updated UI includes contextually aware properties panels and suggested auto-layout, which are expected to significantly improve productivity for designers. The AI tools can help with tasks such as hooking up prototypes, cleaning up layer names, and finding the right components. The CEO demonstrated the new tools while wearing an 'AI' shirt. Additionally, Figma Slides garnered significant attention. This move is seen as a challenge to Adobe's dominance in the design software market.
