figvar

Setup

1. Download repo: https://github.com/Cloov/figvar
2. In the repo project, run npm install then npm run build.
3. Ensure the Figma desktop app is open, and a relevant document is active
4. From the Plugins menu in the menu bar, go to Development > Import Plugin From Manifest
5. Navigate to and select manifest.json from the figvar directory
6. Now, you should be able to run the plugin by going to Plugins > Development > figvar

Once the plugin is recognised by the desktop app, you should be able to run the plugin on any document if you re-run the plugin. It should always operate on the active document as the plugin has an instance per document.

Tips

• In the Plugins > Development menu, use Show/Hide Console if something doesn't seem right, and we can investigate any errors.
