Web Developer Tools & Resources
You’ve seen them everywhere lately—websites where objects rotate as you scroll, immersive product showcases that respond to your mouse movement, hero sections that feel alive. That’s 3D web design, and it’s no longer reserved for developers with years of experience or studios with massive budgets.
Today we’re introducing three new AI image editing tools that make precision editing faster, cleaner, and more intuitive—powering a more complete creative workflow in Figma.
You are working with a passionate founder. They want to build a product which they are super sure of; they have their pitch deck ready, investors are lined up, and they want to hit market in six months.

Branding never stands still. As technology evolves, so do the ways businesses express their identity and connect with audiences.
As the web continues to be the medium for all users, standards bodies need to continue to provide new APIs to enrich user experience and accessibility. One underused API for unsighted users is speechSynthesis, an API to programmatically direct the browser to audibly speak any arbitrary string.
The divide between design and development has long been a source of friction in product teams. A designer updates a color in a design system, and three months later, developers are still using the old hex code. A spacing value changes, and suddenly the app looks inconsistent across platforms. This is where design token management tools come in—they’re the bridge that keeps design decisions synchronized across every platform, every team,...

Here’s an unpacking of the highlights and how they connect to the broader evolution of modern CSS.

Do you think of scrolling as a more modern way of reading than turning pages in a book? Nope, the concept originated in ancient Egypt, and it’s older than what we now classify as books.
The pressure is on. Every conference, every tech blog, every corner of the internet is buzzing with AI agents, autonomous workflows, and the promise of a revolution powered by large language models (LLMs). As a developer, it’s easy to feel like you need to integrate AI into every feature and deploy agents for every task.
Color contrast is the difference in lightness between the foreground color, like text, and the background color. If the foreground color’s values are too similar to the background, the elements can blend together with the background. For example, light gray on a white background has a low contrast, while black text on a white background has a high contrast. Light Gray text will blend into the background while black text...

The discussion was about threats to the open web due to the emergence of large language models (LLMs). Large parts of the web have always been open.
For much of the world, technology has become so intertwined with our day-to-day lives that it influences everything.
Your competitors aren’t building perfect code either. If you spend 6 months building the theoretically perfect architecture, they’ll ship something “good enough” in 2 months and eat your lunch. You’ll have beautiful code that nobody uses.
After three years of immersion in AI, I have come to a relatively simple conclusion: it’s a useful technology that is very likely overhyped to the point of catastrophe
