I participated in the Figma Makeathon and built a small design feedback app prototype using Figma Make.
The idea was to create a simple interaction where users can compare designs, vote, and preview them with gestures. It was really fun exploring how quickly ideas can turn into working interactions.
I enjoyed the process a lot and learned a lot while building this.
Let me know your thoughts 🙂

Sharing one of our recent Kajabi projects 🚀
This project came with a unique challenge.
Our client had an AI-generated website mockup that captured the overall vision, but turning that concept into a real website required much more than simply recreating the design. The goal was to build a site that felt intentional, polished, and true to the brand – not like another generic AI-generated layout.
We recreated the design in Figma, refined the details where needed, and brought it to life in Kajabi using the client's branding, content, and imagery. We also set up the essential system pages and made sure everything was easy for the client to manage going forward.
It's always rewarding to bridge the gap between an AI concept and a website that feels human, cohesive, and ready for real visitors.
This is outstanding work
I can sight more of development than design just from this
What can you create with Figma Motion?
Figma recently introduced Figma Motion, a new way to add animations directly inside your design file.
Of course, I had to try it myself.
I created this scene to test how it handles simple looping animations.
It’s still in beta, so there are a few limitations, but it’s already quite intuitive and beginner-friendly.
Sharing my process walkthrough in the comments.
Have you tried it yet?
Every new Figma file starts the same way.
Variables. Page structure. Base frames. Annotation components. Cover slide.
Twenty minutes of setup before a single design decision gets made. If you're a product designer, you'll know exactly what I mean.
𝗦𝗼 𝗜 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗹𝘂𝗴𝗶𝗻. Meet Starter, one click, and your entire foundation is ready.
→ Core variables: Typography, grids, spacing, and colours
→ Page structure: A clean, organised file hierarchy
→ Base frames: Pre-configured frames hooked up to your grids
→ Helper components: Sticky notes and status labels for quicker documentation
→ Base cover: A customisable project thumbnail
