How Can I See CSS in Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:24 pm

There are a few different ways that you can go about viewing CSS in Figma. The first way is to simply open up the file in your text editor of choice and look at the code.

This is probably the most straightforward method, but it does have some drawbacks. First of all, you’ll need to be familiar with CSS in order to understand what you’re looking at. Secondly, you won’t be able to see how the CSS interacts with the design itself, which can make troubleshooting difficult.

Another way to view CSS in Figma is to use the built-in Developer Tools. To do this, open up your file in Figma and select the ‘Developer Tools’ option from the ‘More’ menu in the top-right corner.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, it is possible to accidentally delete CSS in Figma. Be sure to make a backup before making any changes.

This will open up a console window where you can view and edit the CSS for your design. This method is great for making quick changes to your CSS, but it doesn’t allow you to save your changes or see how they would look in the live version of your design.

The last way to view CSS in Figma is to use an extension like ‘Figma Styles’. This extension allows you to view, edit, and save your CSS changes directly within Figma. It also provides a live preview of your changes so you can see how they would look on the website or app that you’re designing.

So, if you’re wondering how to view CSS in Figma, there are a few different methods that you can try. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, so it’s up to you to decide which one will work best for your needs.
