Top 12 Figma Plugins for UI/UX Designers in 2024
I’ve collected 12 Figma plugins that I will use for projects in 2024. All of them deserve to be in your arsenal!
Content Reel
Need content for your layouts? This plugin makes adding and populating text components, avatars and icons easy. You need to select one or more layers in your project design, choose a content type from the “Content Catalogue” menu and apply it to the selected layers. Simple, functional and makes your work easier.
html.to.design
This plugin converts any website into a fully editable Figma design.
How can I use the plugin?
- Create your own projects based on existing sites by simply importing their HTML code into Figma.
- To test websites or mood boards in Figma without a single screenshot of the screen.
- To upload a web page into Figma for collaboration.
- To improve UX texts and understand how they will look on a website.
Fast Isometric
Fast Isometric is a plugin that allows you to arrange images quickly and easily in an isometric projection.
For this purpose, a set of tools allows you to create isometric cubes, move selections in isometric directions, and duplicate and move geometric objects forward and backward in space.
Here are seven more handy plugins for creating isometric images in Figma:
FrameHop
A plugin that allows you to switch between frames and components quickly.
What else is interesting? The Frame History lists recently selected Frames and Components and Component Variants. You can mark your favourite frames, components, and component Variables for quick access.
Vector to 3D
With this plugin, you can convert any vector to 3D with a straightforward click. The converted models will be automatically placed and rendered with GPU ray-tracing. You can use it to render a nice 3D icon, text, or any other 3D-style images without being a 3D specialist.
Stark
Stark is the perfect plugin to help you create unique and inclusive products. It allows you to check contrast and has a colour blindness simulator. With its help, you can identify inclusion problems which are relevant nowadays.
Unsplash
Unsplash is a massive platform with free images. The plugin allows you to search and import high-quality resource images for personal and commercial projects.
3D Motion Graphics
3D Motion Graphics is a plugin that allows you to create animated 3D effects for selected frames. It can be used for projects to make them more dynamic.
Autoflow
Autoflow is a plugin that makes working with layouts much more accessible. With its help, you can easily connect the necessary components with lines and set the required links.
Simpleflow
Simple Flow is an excellent plugin that allows you to insert an editable FigJam connector into Figma.
Plugin features:
- Add a robust connector (arrow) for creating diagrams
- Automatically update when moving
- Add label annotation on the connector
- Easily update the connector’s position and layout
- [Pro] Preset connector colour

Iconly Pro
Iconly Pro is a plugin I use when I need icons for a project. There are more than 30000 icons in the collection. All the icons are in six styles, so you can pick the one that suits you best. Their advantage is that they are in SVG format, so there will be no problem scaling them.
Alternatively, you can use Feather Icons. More about it
Typescales
Use this plugin to make sure your typography hierarchy is correct. To create a smooth and competent font scale for your project, you only need to specify a base size and select an interval for the scale. It’s as simple as that!
