About the app

What is FigCraft?

FigCraft is a free, open-source interface design tool that recreates the Figma workflow: frames, auto layout, components and variants, vector networks, styles, variables and prototypes. Files are plain .figcraft archives on your own disk, with no account and no telemetry. It is written in Rust by the ArtCraft team and runs on Windows, macOS, Linux and in the browser.

It is alpha software: its authors estimate it is about 49% of the way to replacing Figma for real work. It opens .fig files only on a best-effort basis, and live multiplayer sessions are a preview.

FigCraft is one of the Crafting Apps, alongside VectorCraft, the free Illustrator alternative.
