Figma for Mac

Figma for Mac was built for the future of the web. Figma is a design app for teams who build products together. Born on the Web, Figma helps the entire product team create, test, and ship better designs, faster.



That’s why you’ll see features you won’t find elsewhere. Spend more time iterating and less time moving things around. Remove repetitive tasks, bring in data, and power custom workflows. With your design system in the cloud, all the goodies in your libraries are always one click away.

Goodbye PDFs and outdated exports; share files with a live link! Worry-free editing and collaboration with version history and access a file anywhere with Internet access.
