Mostly, you can build a browser design tool, but live editing together takes more work.
You can build a canvas for designing app and website screens, with shapes, text, and saved projects. Start with one person editing at a time, then add live collaboration with a shared editing service and extra testing.
What keeps people on Figma:Everyone is already on itYears of polish
The checker split your own version of Figma into its key parts and sorted each one.
Screen design canvas
Vibecode can build a canvas with screen frames, text, and shapes you can move and resize.
Works out of the box
Layers and style controls
Add a layer list and controls for colors, text size, and element order.
Works out of the box
Saved and shared projects
Use Vibecode Cloud on Plus for accounts, saved designs, and project access.
Needs setup
Live editing together
Connect a service such as Liveblocks for shared edits and cursors, then test simultaneous changes and reconnects.
Takes more work
A browser app fits a large design canvas and lets people open shared projects.
Plan ahead: Live edits can overwrite each other, so add collaboration after the solo editor works and test conflicting changes.
Written by the checker for a first version. Paste it into Vibecode as is, or change it to make the app yours.
Build a browser design tool for people who want to sketch app and website screens. The main screen should have a large light-gray canvas, a compact toolbar on the left, a layer list, and a properties panel on the right. Let me add phone or website frames, text, and rectangles. Clicking an element should select it so I can drag, resize, change its color, and adjust its text size when relevant. Let me change layer order from the layer list. Save designs in this browser and let me reopen them. Use a clean white interface with blue selection outlines. Include realistic sample data showing a mobile shopping screen and a website landing page. Keep this first version focused on solo editing.

Figma gives people an established community of designers and clients, plus community resources and plugins that a homemade tool would not inherit.

Vibecode builds a first version from one prompt, and the checker would start with these parts: canvas with phone and website frames, text, and rectangles; select, move, resize, and style elements with a layer list; save and reopen designs in the same browser. Plan on a weekend for a working first version with its real features.
Vibecode's first build is free for new accounts that sign up with Google or Apple on the web or the iPhone app, as the account's first project: one build of about 10 minutes with up to 3 features, on sample data. After that you need credits, from a paid plan or auto-reload. For your own version of Figma, the checker lists these costs: Vibecode Plus ($20 a month); API key for Liveblocks (that service's pricing).
Figma gives people an established community of designers and clients, plus community resources and plugins that a homemade tool would not inherit. A version you build yourself won't have these: designers and clients already using Figma; Figma Community creator resources; existing Figma plugin ecosystem.
Figma's Professional (full seat) plan costs $16 a month, billed yearly. That's from Figma's own site, checked on October 21, 2026.
