Huh? Why? Designers had previously been using native apps for ages — Photoshop, Illustrator, Sketch... Figma has been successful not just because it's collaborative but also because it's performant, powerful, and reliable. Not sure why you think that can't be achieved with other kinds of software

And yet it is a hardcore tool, and does gain a lot from being implemented as a web app. Another example might serve your point better.

Ok, I see my point being not so understandable, after all. I didn't mean Figma isn't a hardcore tool, I meant that we exclude it because it specifically concerns with web technology (being a tool for web design) and leverages web to implement collaborative usage. So it's probably logical for it to be a web app.

You're still way off. It's not a "web" design tool; it's a visual design and prototyping tool. Folks are designing a lot more than websites and web apps with Figma.

Ah, gotcha. Although I'd have assumed that Figma is used more to design native apps that web apps, this helps me understand where you're coming from.
