The future of design is code and canvas

Figma announces a new workflow integration with Claude Code that lets developers send rendered browser states directly into Figma as editable layers.

• •Install the Figma MCP, type "Send this to Figma," and the browser's rendered state automatically translates to fully editable Figma layers
• •The reverse flow is also supported: after exploring and polishing designs in Figma, use Figma MCP to pull changes back into the codebase
• •Figma positions the design canvas as superior to IDE/ADE prompting for exploring multiple possibilities side by side
• •The integration aims to break linear product workflows (brainstorm → design → code) in favor of starting anywhere and iterating freely
• •The core argument is that in an AI-assisted world, finding the best solution in a vast possibility space—not just building fast—is the real differentiator
