   Figma: An Essential Tool for Web Designers and Collaborators

   Figma, a versatile cloud-based design software, stands out among design tools due to its real-time collaboration feature. It caters not only to web design but also to print projects. Offering an intuitive interface and powerful features, it allows simultaneous editing, eliminating the hassle of file sharing. Figma's adaptability covers website, mobile app, and print layout design, supported by an array of customizable templates.

Its pricing model, featuring a free version with limited features and a paid option, suits various budgets, ensuring accessibility to freelancers and larger agencies alike.

   Core features like real-time collaboration, prototyping, and reusable design elements distinguish Figma.

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 9 months ago

• Syncing Figma Variables and StyleDictionary with GitHub Actions

  Figma recently announced its new Variables product, allowing you to define and manage your design tokens directly within Figma. I have been experimenting with Figma Variables for a few weeks and am reasonably impressed with how it works. In this article, I'll share how I've been using Figma Variables to support my design projects and how I've been syncing them with my codebase with GitHub Actions and... - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• Nenya Ring Designers?

  I used custommade.com for another style ring recently. I was happy with the pricing, service, design, and wait time. It will take about 3-4 weeks for them to take it from design to completion but any other service is going to be around the same turnaround time. Source: 11 months ago

• She told me what she wants, what do I do next?

  Surprise her and do something custom. I'm making a ring right now with custommade.com and happy with the process. I've changed my mind twice and they've been super patient. Source: about 1 year ago

• Fun Idea: 20 Random Redditors Each Have a Custom Ring Made Like a "Ring of Power"

  I loved the concept. A company like custommade.com (I have no affiliation BTW) could be used to design and make each ring according to the person's preference. (Heck might even be able to get them to offer a discount to the 20 volunteers so they can do some marketing off of it). Source: about 1 year ago

• Thinking of buying diamond and ring setting separately–has anyone done this? Any tips or suggestions?

  At first I was going to have the entire ring customized through custommade.com, but after several failed CAD attempts, I truly think the ring style I want is too complex for them to replicate even after I have given them many photos and interactive videos from several different angles of the exact ring I want.

• wife wants to get remarried

  In addition to a jeweler or etsy, there are some websites that are specifically set up for custom jewelry. I used CustomMade for my fiance's ring, and we both adore how it came out. You send them various ideas and tell them what you and they walk you through the process, step by step. Source: over 1 year ago
