I'm using @Figma intensely for 2 years now.
I tried a lot of different plugins and these 5 plugins changed the way I work and make my life so much easier.
Here’s a breakdown of my 5 favorite Figma plugins: 🧵👇
@figma Plugin #1: A11y Contrast Checker
Rookie designers often forget to check their designs for accessibility, with this plugin you can directly check your colors and fonts inside of Figma.

@figma Plugin #2: Content Reel
It's annoying to think about placeholder text or images, with content reel you can add a lot of different data like names, addresses and photos to your design in seconds.

@figma Plugin #3: Figma Tokens
If you love design systems, you should level up your design system game and use Figma Tokens. You finally have design tokens inside of figma and can theme your designs. It's amazing!

@figma Plugin #5: Select layers
You have a lot of the same elements and you want to change all of them in seconds, without selecting every element one by one? Select layers is your tool. Especially if you're building design systems. It can save you hours!
