Figma Users: How do you handle micro-animations (without hard files)?

over 1 year ago from Michael Rurka

  • Mahdi FarraMahdi Farra, over 1 year ago

    I don’t think there are any good reliable micro-animation or prototyping software that works great on the cloud (opportunity!).

    With that said, there was an app called Pixate which I used for a while until it got acquired and murdered by Google...

      Why did they murder it?

        Pixate came back from the dead as Protopie: https://www.protopie.io/

      Haha, opportunity indeed :P

      I wonder about XD though. Do you know if XD has hard files or are they in the cloud? XD looks appealing because it has auto-animation built into the product.

        I believe XD has hard files, but might be moving to the cloud as well, since they already have a cloud version of Adobe Lightroom

            Whoa! Figma plugins are going to change the game. Whoever was holding back on jumping on Figma's ship has no excuse anymore!
