You can put url shortcuts on your desktop. Also Figma is part of a terrible trend and I hate this crap as a web dev.

As someone who has been designing stuff in native file-based apps for 30 years, I consider Figma a godsend -- because of their collaboration / multiplayer features. And I don't miss files at all, though of course I understand that I do not control my data stored in Figma.

It points to the need for native software to allow collaboration and this is actually happening slowly.

I still hate Figma though. It's too primitive and I'm sick of being given Figma links where the necessary resources are 50% chance not isolated, or not vector, or not exposed at all.
