Figma code layers launches on Product Hunt: Design, code and specs together on one Figma canvas

What happened

Figma launched Code Layers (public beta) to embed working code and technical specs directly on the Figma canvas, reducing design-to-engineering handoff friction and speeding implementation - important for B2B teams that need tighter design-dev collaboration.

Product description

Figma’s code layers put working code on the design canvas, next to the designs. Create one from a frame, a GitHub repo, a webpage via Chrome extension, or by asking the Figma agent. Compare options side by side, and turn a code layer’s states back into editable layers. Figma Specs add design and technical requirements on the canvas, and Payload connects data to Make. Public beta.
