I may have spent 8,000 Figma Make credits building Pulse, but turning random 2 AM ideas into real products is apparently my favorite hobby.
Simply explore the globe, find a country, and click to open its live cultural dashboard. Discover what's trending and what people are wearing, celebrating, eating, and talking about, all shared by the community living there.

Using 8k credits as a badge of honor is the right energy. The globe as the primary navigation is a strong concept, it makes exploring cultural data feel like actual discovery rather than just filtering a list.
Thanks
This is Amazingš

MURMUR
https://murmur.figma.site
Little messages of positivity, set loose on Earth's real wind.
We send more words than ever, and almost none of them are held anywhere. They scroll past and vanish.
Murmur takes a positive message from a real person and releases it into Earth's actual jet stream, carried across the planet on live wind data, kept in a shared archive anyone can add to.
It's guided by a single constraint: everything is typography.
The wind is type.
The messages are type.
The atmosphere itself is made of language.
Live jet-stream data from Open-Meteo drives the movement of every message;
Even the sound is generated from the same atmospheric data.
Supabase holds the growing archive contributed by people around the world.
Built with Figma Make, Figma Agent, Supabase, Open-Meteo, and Weave.
One idea, one constraint, and a place for meaningful words to flow.
Looks cool
With @Figma Config right around the corner next week, I'm doing something a little crazy: building a real product from scratch, just by having fun with Figma for Config Makeathon
I've got 3 ideas shortlisted and I genuinely can't pick one.
Part 1 is up š come tell me which one I should pitch.
I want all 3!
For the #ConfigMakeathon, I created Book Trace. It is a reading journal app that helps you capture thoughts while you read, and leave a personal trace when you finish.
[Concept]
Book Trace turns the experience of reading into something you can hold onto. Instead of forgetting what a book meant to you, you leave a Trace ā one sentence, one emotion, one word. The app also reads what you wrote and tells you what kind of reader you are, with book recommendations matched to your type and genre.
[Project Overview]
For this submission, I designed:
- Onboarding flow;
- Still Reading experience with in-the-moment note capture;
- Finished flow with the full Trace journey;
- Reader Identity system with personalized recommendations;
- Library with saved traces;
- UI Kit and design system.
[Workflow]
I built the full product from concept to prototype in Figma. UI Kit, component library, and interactive flows all in one file.
[My Experience]
What I loved most about this challenge was how it pushed me to think about the full user journey, not just screens, but emotions. Book Trace started as a simple idea and grew into something that feels genuinely personal.
Figma made it possible to move from rough concept to polished prototype without ever leaving the workspace.
Thank you to the Figma team for a challenge that made me build something I actually want to use!
