Overview

A suite of Figma plugins that have collectively been used by over 2 million designers worldwide. What started as scratching his own itch turned into one of the most popular plugin portfolios in the Figma ecosystem.

Arc generates beautiful curved text and circular typography — something Figma doesn't support natively. It became the go-to solution with over 1 million users. Blobs creates organic, randomized blob shapes perfect for backgrounds and illustrations. Avatars generates placeholder avatar images for designs. SkewDat adds isometric and perspective transforms.

Each plugin was designed with the same philosophy: do one thing exceptionally well, make it dead simple, and ship it fast. Dylan handled everything — design, development, marketing, and community support.
