Me too. At least it doesn't say I need to wash my car.
You're right, I used a wrong link, fixed now. So Figma has both.
I underwent allergy treatment that stopped working, so I decided to try steroid medication. After about four days, I began experiencing unusual migraines every day. I had migraines before, but they always came with a headache. However, with the steroids, I started getting just very strange optic auras. Everything began to sparkle out of nowhere, becoming more intense until I had to close my eyes. The symptoms stopped once I discontinued the steroid treatment.
It is not possible to use the scroll on that website (working well on Firefox though).
Just search for "Digital Adoption Platform" and you see lots of tools out there.
If you are targeting code generation, try Framer.

If you like me have many events during the day, you are probably also tired by constant switching to Mac Calendar or Google Calendar just to check when the next event starts. I searched for a widget that would show me upcoming events in some "always visible" way, but all apps showed the schedule in a separate window. So I decided to make a new app that would show a schedule right in a Dock...
You can export .fig files as well.
In cases like this I reply "Hi" in 10 minutes and close, so people see it would be easier to start with actual thing instead.
Funny to see this news on a website with cookie overlay for half of the window.

I decided to open source Treenga issue tracking system I worked on the last year. It was mainly created to provide an easier way to create task descriptions in "full-page" mode, where images will be treated as first-class citizens, and provide a way to manage hundreds of tasks. Something like a hybrid of Dropbox Paper and Github Issues. Treenga has a hierarchical tag structure, so you can...
It depends on what you call "design". User flow, interactions, states, rectangles and colors or just rectangles and colors. If first, there are a lot of other tools, maybe not so hyped so you don't see them every day. Just to name a few: Axure, Justinmind, iRise, Indigo Design. Recent version of Adobe XD is quite a powerful tool as well. With the rise of rapid application development tools we possibly can add Bubble, Retool, Outsystems and similar tools to this list too.
I think many people don't get why Axure is still popular is because they don't design for enterprise software. Sometimes it is just much easier to create table as a table and not as a bunch of vertical and horizontal lines like you will have to do in most of design software.
I tried to switch to Adobe XD, but sooner or later you can't do some sort of thing that is simple in Axure and you are stuck. Simple example. You have a settings page like this:
Setting 1 name [toggle]
Setting 2 name [toggle]
Setting 3 name [toggle]
You want to turn any toggle on and panel with subsettings should appear underneath clicked setting name, shifting down all other settings below. In Axure it is just a checkmark "push widgets below".
"extremely slow" One of the reasons why I decided to make Treenga. Our daily software should work instantly now, this is so strange to see that many apps work nowadays slower than decade ago. Maybe product managers don't focus on speed anymore?
Can you please add Treenga to comparison? It is more like simple issue tracking, so very far from, say, Jira, but may work as a replacement for Trello for simple task management. This is my recent project, would be happy if you share your feedback.
I similarly tried Trello and Github issues (created about 1,500 issues so far just on GH) and it is not easy to work in any of them. Trello is great until you have lots of tasks, Github is developer-centric and not product-centric, thus too unstructured. Finally decided to do one more task management tool. Saying the truth, there is so huge competition in this space right now, that I would think 10 times before making something like this nowadays, knowing how difficult to implement it despite seeming simplicity. It becomes more and more complex if you want to offer revision history, "undo" functionality instead of constant "are you sure you want to delete" etc. But I like what we did so far (see project name in my profile if you want to try it). Actually, I still don't know the other tool which is focused on creation of actual "stories" and not just small text description and lots of tags.
We just launched
https://treenga.com because of this constant Github mess of product discussions and development details, so we can focus just on product development in one place and just on code in another.
This is an exact reason why I decided to make another task management tool (recently showed here on HN), where you can simply create tickets, assign tags and get everything filtered. I would highly appreciate feedback if you decide to try it.

I wrote thousands of tasks over the years, and all of them were written for remote team members. And for most of them I needed a big canvas to explain everything, utilizing a combination of written paragraphs and images to make my vision clear. I don’t like to have to attach my images at the end of a document, but rather to integrate them in order to better explain the text. But tools like Trello and Asana didn't satisfy me because the text field is small and images attached at the end and not within a description.
I want my images to be placed right after the text they relate to, because I want my readers to be able to review all visuals before moving on to the next paragraph. This is why I favor text representation such as Medium, where images are first-class citizens used to enhance descriptions, and are not treated like an afterthought or text appendix. When creating task descriptions, I frequently needed to include screenshots from the live website or from a prototyping tool to better explain what needed to be done, so I used OneNote (note-taking tool from Microsoft) or good old-fashioned emails (add text, images, files — everything kept within a single message). OneNote, despite its simplicity, didn’t work all that reliably for document sharing, so once I discovered Dropbox’s Paper two years ago, I instantly switched to it.
Eventually, I realised that what I wanted was to use a mix of Paper and Github, so a “single task at a time” interface with rich task descriptions, along with category/people assignment features. So we created Treenga. Tasks are grouped by categories (tags), which can be hierarchical and represent your project structure, or be designed around task attributes such as milestones or urgency.
Implementations details: about 1 year of development time (with multiple core-feature modifications), PHP (Laravel), Vue.js (Element component library).
Try it, we create a sample team upon registration, so you can easily understand how it behaves.

Groupy to add tabs into programs that don't have tabs for documents. Use it mostly with Axure.
TouchCursor to enhance keyboard, mostly as arrows, "Start" and "End" buttons. Allows to deal with text without moving hand to arrows.
