    Unrelated to the primary topic, but I have been trying out a new free (as in beer) app called lunacy [1] for prototyping and the experience has been great. I am not a UX professional so can't comment on feature parity with Figma etc. It was however interesting to discover that the native cross platform app was powered by dotnet core & the open source Avalonia framework[2]. It looks quite polished and the framework seems to have come a long way since I tried a few years ago. [1] https://icons8.com/lunacy.

  3. Mockplus is a desktop-based prototyping tool.
    I found a tool that has similar functionality, but a better free tier. Check out MockPlus https://mockplus.com.

    At first glace it doesnt work from browsers - AFAIK, only PenPot[1] does, that too only 60% of Figma features. [1] https://penpot.app/.
