.fig extension used by Figma software - source of confusion

Recently one of our customers sent design files in fig format (with .fig extension). As .fig is an extension used by famous old Linux design tool Xfig, we tried to open in it and were getting errors.

And then the designer came to rescue and informed about the online tool Figma.


Figma provides easy prototyping options for lazy aka productive designers. In my opinion, it is somewhat comparable to Pingendo. It is more of an online tool developed in JavaScript. They also provide desktop version / downloadable software. I'd thought that its performance will be better in desktop tool, but noted that it is only an Electron app.
