Figma put a full vector editor in the browser and made multiplayer the default: named cursors move in real time, and selection becomes a social act you can watch happen. The canvas is infinite and zoom-driven — layers dock left, properties dock right — so the chrome never competes with the artboard as work scales. Components and variants turn repeated UI into a single editable source, and the right-panel design-system bindings make consistency the path of least resistance. Auto-layout quietly imports flexbox thinking into a design tool, which is powerful but adds a model users must learn. Comments pin to coordinates, turning review into annotations on the thing itself rather than a separate thread.
