Import Figma designs into Orshot by converting them to JSON format
Figma Plugin: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1521226770376707744/orshot
Introduction
The Orshot Figma Plugin bridges the gap between design and dynamic image generation by converting your Figma designs into JSON format that can be imported into Orshot. This allows designers to create templates in Figma's familiar interface and then use them for automated image generation via Orshot's API.
