Key AI Features (Integrated & Plugins)
Leverage AI through plugins (e.g., Diagram, Automator, Magician) to automate tasks like generating diagrams, icons, text, images, and UI suggestions.
Figma's core strength: Work simultaneously with teammates on the same design file, with live cursors and commenting.
Create and manage reusable components and styles, ensuring consistency across projects (AI can assist in suggesting or organizing components).
Build interactive prototypes to test user flows and interactions directly within Figma (AI might assist in generating basic flows in the future).
Utilize AI-powered plugins to automate repetitive design tasks, such as layer naming, resizing, or populating designs with data.
