Summary
Figma has transformed its AI design assistant, Figma Make, from a prototyping tool into a live visual software editor that connects natively to production codebases. The update enables product managers, designers, and non-technical users to import Git repositories into Figma's desktop app, visually edit application code via the canvas, and push changes back to engineering through standard GitHub pull requests. From an enterprise governance perspective, visual AI edits are subject to the same CI/CD pipelines, security checks, and code reviews as traditional engineering commits, ensuring compliance and oversight.
