Workflows ≠ systems
Systems think about:
• scale
• failure
• data ownership
• long-term maintenance
That’s the difference between demos and production.

Love the color palette. Also I feel the vibe nothing better than treating yourself with a little side project happiness
Grab the Bears - A Camera-Based Gesture Interaction
A few years ago, gesture interaction required a full engineering team and months of development.
For the Figma Makeathon, I built a working camera-controlled gesture game on my own - entirely in Figma Make.
Grab the Bears reimagines tap and swipe as physical gestures. Players use their right hand to grab floating bears in real time.
• Camera-driven embodied interaction
• Real-time gesture detection
• Animated UI + sound micro-interactions
• Dynamic result generation with shareable export?
Really impressive — camera-based interaction inside Figma Make is a leap. Curious how you handled gesture recognition latency and feedback loops? The micro-response timing probably makes or breaks the experience
It was quite a challenge - I’ve never worked on anything like this before. I’ve never really used code beyond small integrations in @Framer , so building something like this felt huge for me.
I’m honestly happy like a kid who just built their first paper plane that actually flies, or a little paper boat that finally sails.
