    If Dev handoff is a key issue, I think Figma is the way to go...
    -just my opinion though-

    Everything I build has to either be:
    1)shared with a developer at some point
    2) be accessible to other folks on the team (that may not have the same software etc installed)

    can't just send jpegs and artifacts any more... things have changed..

    with figma, I can just send a link and share the file etc... developers can see everything they need, they can see all the CSS/code they want...copy it straight into their work...

    stakeholders and others can see the whole project as it progresses...

    I barely open anything in Adobe any more.... we still have the subscription, but i more or less just use it for fine-tuning images like it was meant to be used...no longer do ANY design work in it..

    we're even starting to move some limited print work to Figma...since you can output to PDf just fine....

    • If your devs use the code from Figma, get new devs ;)zarkonite
    • lol, bit of hyperbole there... generally they get the info they need from it... much more efficiently than from, say, a jpeg...exador1
    • hehe true, but a standard prototype can also do that. The fact that Figma outputs HTML isn't exactly a plus (at least I haven't figured out why it would be)zarkonite
