Hey @figma experts… hypothetically would there be any way to trigger/automate a Figma action (say, exporting a component) from a button within a prototype? I've looked for plugins, but have drawn a blank. #figma

Thank you @qwertykate for the lovely handmade Christmas card that arrived (slightly late) yesterday! It’ll now brighten up our empty looking mantlepiece in January.

Introducing the Kronberg Porsche 911. A Dieter Rams-inspired vintage hot rod I built with Porsche expert Rich Gonçalves. Dieter is a lifelong Porsche driver, and this car is sort of a tribute to him on his 90th birthday today. Who wants a ride? #porsche #porsche911 #luftgekuhlt
