-- Today, I'm featuring a super cool story I came across a couple days ago on X. A disgruntled developer who created an MCP server to communicate with Figma had his project killed by Figma themselves (they released their own). As such, he decided to spend a single weekend to re-develop the main Figma Design UI. It has AI integration, auto-layout, components, etc etc.. It's MIT. In a weekend, with Opus 4.6 and other tooling. What does this mean going forward?
