Jeremy Mura (YouTube, May 8, 2025) reviews a set of new Figma updates: native website publishing (connect a domain and publish designs without developer handoff), an AI feature called Figma Make for prompt-driven site generation, new vector/art brush drawing tools, and "Figma Buzz" template/asset-scaling tools (plus native type-on-a-path). He frames these changes as competitive moves versus Webflow and Framer.
Tingler is challenging webflow and Framer with their brand new updates. You can actually publish websites. So if you're a designer that doesn't know how to develop, you can now publish your designs as a fully functioning website. Connect a domain. Another brand new feature as well is Figma Make. You can actually do some vibe coding now, so you can actually do a prompt and tell it what website to generate and the AI will create a website design for you. Vector tool. So you can actually draw in Figma now using art brushes. So if you're someone who wants to do some illustrations or create shapes just like in Illustrator, you can actually do that now in Sigma Figma Buzz. It's sort of like Canva where you can actually create templates and scale a lot of the assets. So if you have a big campaign and you want to have multiple different assets, you can, you can create a lot of assets really quickly and automatically and then use the grid to resize everything the type on a path tool. You can actually do that natively now without actually having to do a path plugin. So yeah, there's a lot of competition now and fingers giving everyone a run for the money. So we'll see how this pans out.
