    As a developer on the backed of a Sketch > Zeplin.io flow, what will FIgma do to help me? Biggest issue with Zeplin is that it's conceived as one-way flow of info, with no way to question the design comp itself. Are you providing more than Hex colors, Font specs & block dimensions? If so, how can we use Figma to converge faster on the correct implementation? Thanks.

      Hi, Nye! In addition to inspecting hex colors / fonts / spacing, you can also leave comments in Figma and have conversations about the design in real time. Is this useful for your workflow? Or are you getting at something else with your question?

        Biggest time waste has been getting responsive design elements implemented correctly from Sketch/Zeplin, so the "auto-layout" features you mention in a subsequent comment below need to be visible and actionable to developers. Second biggest time waste has been around dynamic aspects of the design; perhaps this is out of scope of Figma (you're working from 2D Sketch files...) but something like the InVision screen transition mark-up would be nice to include in any spec to developers.

        For what it's worth, the other biggest time wasters have been implementing custom dialog behavior, and dynamic table layout. I'd be keen to learn more about how you help with those specific design elements. Thanks!
