Sync Figma to Webflow
With the Figma to Webflow App, you can now do more than just import your Figma components and variables — you can also sync changes from Figma into Webflow. That means you can now send your styling, layouts, colors, text, and images to Webflow and transfer them seamlessly.

Goodbye SASS 👋, welcome back native CSS
Sass has established itself as a powerful preprocessor installed locally, forming the backbone of my projects for over a decade.
Every once in a while I will make an old programming reference to a much younger engineer and then realize they have no idea what I’m talking about.
CSS Button Styles You Might Not Know

🧠 Fun Fact
SASS Origin Story – Created by Hampton Catlin and developed further with Natalie Weizenbaum in 2006, SASS was born from Hampton’s frustration with CSS’s limitations, revolutionizing how developers work with stylesheets today.
Using software can be hard. All those form fields, menu items, interactive widgets and more… continually changing. So let’s call it Pinball UI.
