I've been tinkering with @penpot recently. I'm quite impressed so far and want to keep tinkering.

Penpot still needs to add support for Display P3 color profile before it can seriously replace Figma or Sketch for exporting production assets though.

For example, PowerPoint on Mac defaults to P3, so Penpot exported sRGB assets don't match the colors in the presentation template I'm designing.

N'empêche, la domination de Figma n'est pas saine à long terme. Ca veut dire qu'on sera de plus en plus pieds et poings liés en cas de changement de politique (notamment tarifaire). Mais aussi que Figma a un poids déraisonnable sur nos pratiques et manières de faire.

C'est un peu comme le débat sur la mono-culture dans le développement des navigateurs web : en simplifiant, le W3C et autres WG sont obligés de suivre ce que fait Chrome.
