plugisto @plugisto.com · 04/03/2026As a test, I let MATE produce a poster design in "Swiss style".

I'm not sure if that will still hold. 000

plugisto @plugisto.com · 13/01/2025This is cool. What if there is a plugin that writes and runs code for you - without needing a console or code or knowing how to code. The plugin is called MATE, and it uses AI to help you writing helping scripts. Check it out: www.figma.com/community/pl... 020

plugisto @plugisto.com · 06/01/2025This is such a cool use case for MATE for InDesign. Here, Laurent created a script with MATE that colors cells based on their content. This is the perfect how AI can provide value because it "understands" your context and helps you to achieve better results (not only faster results). Thanks! ↓More 130
