Figma is Dead (almost)

UI Design
Cursor just released their browser feature, and I'm testing it for visual editing directly in code. Here's my honest take—it's not replacing Figma anytime soon, but for fine-tuning features in context? It's a game changer.
The cursor browser is an agent that can control a web browser to test applications, visually edit layouts and styles, and debug issues.. But every change writes to code, which makes it slower than pure design tools. This isn't about replacing your design workflow, it's about augmenting it when you're already in the codebase.
What You'll Learn:
• What Cursor's browser feature actually is (and isn't)
• How I built a real feature for Cal.com using a sketch → ChatGPT prompt → Claude Code
• How to use the browser to select elements and prompt visual changes directly
• When this workflow shines vs when to stick with Figma
