If @figmadesign team will be able to keep the promise of keeping the plugin facing API consistent and stable, it ... is ... huge. None of the plugins I created for Sketch work. I just didn't have enough time to keep rewriting them.https://twitter.com/figmadesign/status/1138477048446574597 …

The API is also very easy to use! Although I'm not so sure about this statement: "If you can build a website, you should be able to make a plugin." In theory, it is true. If you use typescript to compile node js apps, that is. Otherwise, there is a small learning curve.

You don’t need to use TypeScript for Figma plugins, if that’s what you mean? You can write in vanilla JS.

Ah right! Now I see it in the docs. Both the boilerplate and the documentation were using Typescript, so it confused me a little bit. Thanks for the clarification.

No, thank you for bringing it up. We need to be better at explaining this.
