Figma announces new features to define how agents work on its platform
What changed
Design platform Figma announced a new Markdown-based editor to help define a company’s design, bring in design and code libraries, and integrate with the Payload headless content management system during the company’s first Config event in India. Through some of these features, the company aims to provide a definition for its own and third-party agents to adhere to a brand’s design rules better while creating with AI. The company debuted a new feature called Figma Specs, which is a markdown editor that lets users define their design language in a simple way.
Why it matters
