    Canva is good for creating social media graphics, not app prototypes.

    Fireworks was very different. Figma is good to just arrange already built graphics.

    For one part of what I used Fireworks for Figma is I believe the best alternative for building interfaces and websites. However its handling of images is terrible so for that I personally use Affinity Designer which also isn't great coming from fireworks.
