I tried Figma again after a few years expecting that they'd surely have a tool that lets me describe a design and then it generates a Figma design file.

Nope. Figma Make first renders an HTML/React app with your design. Then you could convert to a Figma design file if you have a pro plan. Extremely underwhelming.

There's hardly any difference between using Figma and just designing it with Codex and Claude Code. And now, Claude Design seems to get it right.
