FIGMA OPENS CODE LAYERS BETA, ADDS SPECS AND A BACKEND FOR MAKE

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Figma Code Layers has entered open beta across plans, running interactive prototypes beside design frames, with generation and editing free on paid plans through November 4. Specs adds shared Markdown documents that pass requirements to AI agents through MCP, and a Payload integration gives Make a database, CMS, and admin interface. Rollouts differ: Guidelines is in open beta on paid plans, Code sources stays closed, and Payload reaches all plans over the coming weeks.
