    I thought Figma was just for UI designers until I started using it for everything else (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

It wasn't until I was tasked with building marketing media for a trekking company that someone recommended I create it in Figma, and, as it turned out, it was exactly the program I should have been using all along.
