Config 2026: Code Layers, Figma Motion, and Agent GA Ship Simultaneously

  • Discussion

Code Layers is the headliner: any design layer can be turned into a code layer with one click or a prompt, letting teams clone repos, generate directions via the Figma agent, extract flows into editable design layers, and push changes back to code — without leaving the canvas. It's a direct challenge to the handoff-tool category, and if it works as described, it collapses a step that's caused friction for years. The rest of the Config drop is substantial. Figma Motion lands with a full keyframe timeline, animation presets, and export to CSS, JSON, React, MP4, WebM, Animated SVG, and GIF. Shader fills and generative plugins are rolling out to Professional plans and above. The AI agent — previously in beta — is now generally available to all users, with skills that package up team workflows into reusable, shareable instructions.
