🐛 Indexly 2.0 works now in FigJam.
Including Virtual Index and cover images.

At this point, I think Figma has a whole payment scam going on, even worse than Adobe’s methods. I see five available seats but can’t downgrade to the number I’ve actually been using for a year. Upgrading is easy, but downgrading? Not without contacting support

Contently now converts your icons into Figma-ready templates instantly, freeing you to focus on creativity, not clicks.  

Next update: remote templates for text, images & icons.  
Which open-source sets should make the cut?

A new feature is coming to Figma that lets you use a slot-based component approach — without the need for the usual slot workaround where you create separate components to act as slots ✨

Ever asked yourself why you're even on Threads?
I kinda like having cool people around and sharing some of my productivity-focused Figma plugins, hoping they help you too, not just our internal teams.

Always makes my day when I hear the plugin saved someone a ton of time!

Notely now supports native FigJam sticky note management and creation, including custom colors

By the way... Color Extractly doesn’t just pick colors, it shows how your color combo behaves in light & dark modes or even on gradients

Some mini adjustments to the color drag & drop in to Figma.  

Now drag & drop works from the color detail panel too.  
🎨 Drag & Drop Preview = Shows all active colors  
🌈 Drag & Drop Hue Ramp = Gives you the full hue ramp

Okay, I might be biased... but good luck finding a better color plugin for Figma 🎨

Small update to the Indexly for Figma ToC style mimic feature, which had been partially broken since the 3.0 release. It’s back now, and your ToCs and component property maps can be as lovely — or as ugly — as you want them to be

Small quality-of-life update for the Contently Figma plugin: if you haven’t activated Live Selection, you can now click on individual items to view their content. No need to render everything from all selected elements using the Scan Selection button anymore
October 23, 2025 at 11:03 AM
Convert any Figma component into a professional property matrix, either to clean up your components or to create a component ToC for the entire document
October 23, 2025 at 6:31 AM
The Masonry Grid feature from the Color Extractly Figma toolbox now works via Quick Actions as well, which means you can use it & update without opening the plugin
October 22, 2025 at 3:14 PM
That moment when you make breaking changes to critical dependencies... and everything still works after the update.
Looks like I actually built my tools pretty solid xD

Moving one component from one design system to another = days of manual work. ✨ Not anymore.

The new Replace & Swap tools eliminate the manual grind.  Swap local colors, variables, components, and text styles across files instantly.

Added a new feature toggle to Indexly that allows you to render an image of the related Figma frame in the ToC, making it easier to find and jump to the right frame without reading

Currently working on long-overdue core improvements for Contently. These updates enhance the templating experience with new detail pages, quick actions, and shortcuts.

Previously hidden in the backend, these features will be accessible in the UI for more manual control over your templates.

Render all components into a ToC with a single click.  
Minor Component Map update for Indexly, still in Alpha, but have fun exploring ;)
October 15, 2025 at 8:03 AM
Super underrated Windows 11 feature: Press Win + Ctrl + T to copy any text from your screen, even from images to paste it straight into Figma 🪄

Made some updates to the Indexly Figma ToC to improve index rendering and calculation of the index sheet width, along with some enhancements to the virtual index sheet DOM, happy sharing
