Figmotion Overview
Figmotion is a free animation tool that runs inside Figma as a plugin, created to make adding motion to designs easier without leaving the design environment or switching to a separate program such as After Effects or Principle. For designers already working in Figma, it brings timeline-based animation directly into their existing files, so they can animate the layers and components they have already designed. With a familiar timeline and keyframe approach, you can animate properties like position, scale, rotation, and opacity, set easing for natural-feeling motion, and preview the result in place. Because Figmotion is built with web technologies in mind, it is particularly useful for communicating motion intent to developers, making the hand-off from design to implementation clearer. It is a lightweight, no-cost way to prototype interface animations and micro-interactions for people who already use Figma as their main design tool. This page links to the official Figmotion source.
