Figma Config 2025 Highlights
Figma's annual Config conference in 2025 unveiled a suite of groundbreaking features aimed at revolutionizing the design process. From AI-driven tools to enhanced collaboration capabilities, here's a comprehensive look at what's new.
Figma Sites: Design to Deployment Simplified
Figma Sites allows you to copy designs directly into a responsive site builder. You get 50+ templates, built-in design system support, and plug-and-play interactions like scroll effects or marquees.
You can set breakpoints for different screen sizes, preview your design as live HTML, and hit Publish — all inside Figma. It’s as close as it gets to designing and launching a real website without leaving your design tool.

Figma Make: AI-Powered Prototyping
This one’s big. With Figma Make, you type a prompt (e.g., “Create a signup form with dark mode and animation”), and get a high-fidelity, editable prototype backed by code. Want to start from your own design? Just paste in your Figma frame.
You can tweak margins, padding, imagery, or even the underlying code, then hit Publish to ship a live web app. It’s the closest we’ve seen to real-time design-to-dev-to-deploy in a single platform.
Figma Buzz: Streamlined Marketing Assets
With Figma Buzz, brand and marketing teams now have a centralized, scalable way to push out on-brand assets. Drag-and-drop your Figma files, turn them into Buzz templates, and let your team reuse or bulk edit them without stepping out of bounds.
Buzz supports focused editing with brand lock-ins, bulk creation via spreadsheets, and even AI help — generate images, remove backgrounds, or rewrite copy in seconds. This isn’t just templating — it’s smart, brand-safe scaling.
Figma Draw: Enhanced Vector Illustrations
Figma Draw is now a powerhouse for illustrators and creatives. You can now switch to a dedicated Draw toolbar, giving you a focused interface with smarter layers and tool panels. Want to sketch freely? Use lasso, shape builder, or even multi-edit vector tools to bring complex shapes to life faster.
Need hand-drawn charm? Brushes and dynamic strokes (with wiggle and frequency settings) add a personalized touch. There’s even a "text on a path" feature to break free from boring straight lines — now your type can curve, twist, or dance.
Advanced fill effects like texture, pattern, noise, and progressive blur give your visuals more depth. And get this — Boolean operations have been turbocharged for smoother workflows, and variable width strokes are just around the corner. It's illustration inside Figma, done right.
Grid 2.0: Advanced Layout Capabilities
Grid just leveled up. Now, you can use grid as an auto layout option to handle bento boxes, carousels, or dense galleries with precision. Components can span multiple tracks, so you're no longer stuck in a single column or row jail.
You also get fixed track sizing (for pixel-perfect control), and — best part — everything aligns perfectly with CSS Grid in Dev Mode. The design-to-dev handoff just got frictionless.
AI Enhancements: Smarter Design Assistance
Figma has integrated advanced AI features across its platform, including image editing via prompts and auto-suggest functionalities. These enhancements aim to accelerate the design process and reduce manual adjustments.
Developer Mode Updates: Improved Design-to-Code Workflow
Updates to Developer Mode include features like "Ready for Dev" and "Focus View," facilitating a smoother transition from design to development. These tools enhance collaboration between designers and developers.
Global Expansion: Figma's Growing Reach
Figma announced full localization for the Brazilian market, adding to its existing support for Japanese, Spanish, and Korean. This expansion reflects Figma's commitment to serving a global user base. Figma
