A new take on the workflow.

FigCraft documents a usable, limited workflow for making local interface layouts and exporting visual design assets. Official desktop installers and source are available. It remains an early build with significant compatibility and production-workflow gaps; the listed capabilities are maker-documented rather than independently runtime-tested.

What you can switch today.

Replace a limited part of the incumbent workflow: making local interface layouts and exporting visual design assets.

Download an official release for your platform and start with a copy of a small representative project.
Complete the documented core edit/create workflow and save to the native project format.
Export or reopen the result and compare its content, layout or timing before moving further work.

Switching caveat. Alpha. Native .fig import is best effort, multiplayer is only a preview, and accounts/teams/cloud workflow are absent. Use fresh local designs; existing Figma teams and shared-library workflows do not directly transfer. Workflow evidence

Figma alternatives

Local interface editing does not replace multiplayer, component libraries or design handoff. Check .fig imports and team workflows explicitly.
