My Obra Icons project has always been available from the website, but now you can also use the Figma plugin. Earlier this week, we also released a package for React. Any feedback is welcome!

ShapeShifter plugin for Figma
- Posted in figma figma-plugins
Fresh from the plugin press, this plugin by Vijay Verma provides some shortcuts to easily access important vector tools In Figma. This can help as a bit of a bandaid, since Figma’s UI team inexplicably decided to hide the vector tools behind extra clicks in UI3.
Config 2024
- Posted in conference figma figma-plugins
Last week, after Config, I started writing this huge blog post, with all the different subjects that were going through my head. Too many to name, really. If I had over word for the conference, for me personally, it would be overwhelming. To make it more managable to publish my thoughts, a friend suggested to […]

I am looking for people who want to test drive the new Screenshot to Layout plugin for Figma. I am specifically looking for people who want to jump on a short call, share their screen and share their experience. It would be awesome to do some usability testing after all these months of work. If […]
Thinking through the contour feature of Screenshot to Layout
- Posted in build-in-public figma-plugins screenshot-to-layout
Earlier this week I thought through the contour feature for Screenshot to Layout .

Screenshot to layout: landing page & usage update
- Posted in build-in-public figma-plugins screenshot-to-layout
I whipped up a quick landing page at https://screenshottolayout.com . It contains instructions on how to get started and a quick demo. It’s pretty ugly but will do the job for now I think. I released the plugin for free earlier this week, hoping to get some feedback from Figma users. So far a few […]

Delisted
- Posted in build-in-public figma figma-plugins
Yesterday I de-listed my plugin from the Figma community, before I even had my first user. One week before, I happily pushed the publish button and set a price tag of $20. I was proud to have made something worth charging for, but the whole week it was nagging in my head how it was […]
