Figma is a great tool by itself. However, you may quickly add new features to it, thanks to plugins. Let me show you the collection of some that you might not discover yet.

Grab the mug of your favorite coffee, and let’s dive into it!

Icon Scaling

Select icons you want to generate. Nearby in the panel, you have sizing options (the ones the plugin will generate). You may also choose weight.

You may export selected icons with the plugin too. It generates pdf & SVG

Color Name

Ok, so you already generated some tones but do not know how to name them in the design system? Try this plugin.

Select the object with solid fill and check the name of the color or the list of suggested similar color names.

The plugin searches through HTML color names and “Name that Color” to help you find names of tones that are closest to the selected one.

Better Font Picker

So you have set your color. Now it is time for text styles. If you have trouble with picking the font based only on its name, this plugin renders the name of the typeface with its font.

The plugin shows only the list of installed fonts in your system.
