This guide explains how to install the Figma app on your Organization account and add a Figma file to the screen in a Session room in your event.
What is Figma?
Figma is a cloud-based collaborative design tool, used for designing interfaces, creating prototypes, and gathering feedback. Figma offers a free plan with limited features, and advanced functionality is available through a paid subscription.
How does the integration work?
A Figma file or prototype can be added to the screen of a Session room or an Expo Booth Session.
