I've never heard of #figma! I wil have to check that one out. Thanks for the tip! You have any sample creations you're willing to share with the world? ;-) @_foxaru @edutooters

@mguhlin @edutooters
Unfortunately nothing I could share without doxing myself!

I do have a recent #excalidraw diagram I made to try and work through a python database interface I've been working on recently though: Excalidraw is another excellent suggestion.

@mguhlin @_foxaru @edutooters isn't #figma the app recently bought by Adobe?

@docbrown @_foxaru @edutooters Yikes, $20B acquisition - https://www.cmswire.com/digital-experience/how-does-adobes-20b-acquisition-of-figma-impact-ux-designers/

Er, I won't be using that anytime soon. 💰

@mguhlin @_foxaru @edutooters definitely an interesting move on Adobe's part but the valuation? 20B?!?! Yikes is right. I'm guessing the owners of Canva are shedding a tear right now.

@docbrown @mguhlin @_foxaru @edutooters Adobe has made quite a few odd decisions lately. Making Captivate Intel processor compatible only was a weird move, and had me scrambling in the middle of an Instructional Design project for class, to find a viable alternative.

@docbrown @mguhlin @_foxaru @edutooters being from the Figma Community myself you can easily understand their price point.

Figma is everything Adobe isn’t: light, simple, open-ended and very driven by free resource sharing, and that made it so they got something like 50% of the Product Design market in the last 6 years since they launched their first public beta. Adobe is investing in their secret sauce, they want to learn from their model using their resources.

@mguhlin @docbrown @_foxaru @edutooters I know I’m biased but Figma is still free fro personal use and you can expect it to be so for at least a year or two.
