    Comments about Figma as an Alternative to Adobe XD

    It's the best UX/UI tool out there, bar none. Besides very strong vector editor features, which allow creating responsive wireframes, mockups, and prototypes in no time, its collaboration features are unparalleled. It's extremely simple to hand off a design from UX to UI, or from UI to a copyrighter, allowing them to experiment on a duplicated page or just tweak the copy in the design.

    Pencil doesn't carry a good enough user experience to match with xd. It also doesn't seem to be well maintained
