A guide to Auto Layout in Figma

I gave a presentation to the product, design and engineering team at Purplebricks about Using Auto Layout in Figma. This was part of a series of regular talks to encourage sharing of knowledge amongst colleagues.

It was aimed at both designer and front-end engineers and covered topics including:

• The basics of how to use Auto Layout
• How Figma works under the hood
• The similarities between Auto Layout and CSS layout techniques like Flexbox
• Benefits, tricks and tips about using Auto Layout
