    I have been using penpot a lot more since this video was released. A key factor I didn't cover in this video is Performance. Compared to Figma, the performance on Penpot is not great.
    If I am to give a score, it'd be a 4 and Figma will be a 9.
    I can't imagine how penpot will handle a design file with 400+ screens if there's rendering issues at 4 screens. Performance is extremely important if Penpot wants to really compete and I think the team should focus their efforts in this area. On the bright side, Penpot's Flex layout which is similar to Figma's autolayout is really good, so good that I think Figma borrowed some ideas from them as part of the updates on UI3.
    That been said, there's no perfect tool out there and everyone should be able to express their ideas and creativity using their tool of choice. The design industry is better for everyone when there's more competition and less monopoly with our tooling ♥

    Great comparison bro! New fan from Kenya.
    My case is a bit odd. I finally ditched Webflow for Framer early 2023 and in a few months I found myself using Figma less and less - and thus I had no use for the likes of Penpot. I now design exclusively in Framer.
    Though in all fairness I no longer do product design work, plus I have decades of experience so it’s easy for me to go from wireframes to Framer.
    I am however happy to see Penpot grow and make waves against the Goliath’s of our industry… no matter how small.

I've checked it out and they do alot of the things you need it to, such as components, global colours and typography, inspection tools etc but i'm speaking as someone that does both design and development on a freelance level. My biggest reason for wanting to explore other options is not to do with price but the constant push towards your work feeding the ai models. Figma sent me an email to say that they want use our projects to feed their ai models but you can opt out if you want (they definitely saw the backlash that adobe received and approached the issue better)

    Oh if penpot doesn't sell out.. It will for sure be an industry standard..

    It's just like a DAW company saying they own a song and voice of an artist cause they used and tweaked their voice using their plugins.
    It's crazy.. I actually discovered penpot a while a go... And just started navigating it recently just cause I already had other tools I work with over the years that isn't figma.
    But going fully into interface design, I'm been drawn towards penpot as I'm not a big fan of adobe and don't use a lot of their tools, I think only figma actually.

    So, I just found your little corner of the Internet, my friend. And I just wanted to say hi. I am someone who used to be a web developer a long time ago, and I started when I was very young in 1997. I grew up with fireworks as my prototyping tool, and then showed up and I learned that… And recently, I’ve been taking courses to get back into full stack web development, and I didn’t know there were any alternatives to Figma or adobe XD, neither of which I am really a huge fan of anymore. So I really appreciate this video and I hope you end up making a tutorial because I’ll be right here for it.

  • @micbrown6528
    @micbrown6528 3 місяці тому +5

    I've been considering the switch for a while now, but like you, when I first tried out Penpot, I found that a lot of my figma knowledge didn't exactly translate the way I thought it would. But whatever, I'm happy to relearn something for the benefits that Penpot clearly offers in the handoff department (retrospectively, it's kinda crazy how much of an afterthought developers are in Figma). However, after digging around a little more, I never pulled the trigger due to its lackluster support for design systems in its workflow. So I'll be keeping a close eye on it in the coming years. I have no doubt that for a lot of use cases designing with developers in mind and haveing a tool that supports that instead of actively working against you is ultimately the direction we should be moving in as an industry.

      14 dollars is more than 0 dollars. However, for $14 you get the same stripped-down functionality, normal features start at the more expensive plans, but they are enterprise.
      If you are an individual, then you can get by with free figma for now, but they limit it with each update (at the same time they say that they have added functions lol).
      Penpot is free and already has functionality that Figma does not have even on paid plans. For example, a grid system and fewer bugs, and native Tokens Studio functions will appear soon (figma still doesn’t know how to do design systems)

      Speaking as a developer that studied enough design, UX principles and accessibility: for my own projects I couldn’t find any advantage in using Figma before coding. Using react, tailwind css and storybook I create my component design systems while doing design studies and prototypes. I only need low-fi wireframes to validate every use case and UX decisions, then why I should lose more time in Figma just for a high fidelity design? The 30% of developers who use Figma are forced to by their team, not willing to I suspect..
