I’ve been making my slides in Figma for a couple of years now, and having this supported as a first-class flow will be very welcome!

Re: Figma Slides
#12Figma is already my favorite way to design presentations, but the lack of presentation tools like presenter notes has prevented me from switching from traditional tools.
Happy that the Figma product team identified this as an opportunity worth investing in. Figma's overall product trajectory is exceeding my expectations.

#13Hell, I’m a dev and I already produce most of my slide shows in Figma. I’m so happy a dedicated product is coming! I find Figma unmatched for architecture diagrams. It’s nice to have them at my disposal when preparing slide shows.
Just curious, why do you use Figma over other slide making tools?
Just for architecture diagrams, or your familiarity with the tool?
I'm not a Figma user and have no clue, and am wondering if it's worth giving a shot as a new user.

#14It would be good to see some demos of what this can produce, this just looks like PPTX-light on the web, and the slide templates don't really show much.

Re: Figma Slides
#16This is great. I find I'm using Figma in place of other tools more and more. I could see using Figma instead of Word / Google docs pretty soon as well.

#17I know very little about Figma, but if their presentation product can (one day) understand LaTeX math syntax and render it, then I’ll definitely learn it!!

I would disagree. Figma Slides got maybe the most positive response at the keynote. Most designers I know already use Figma for slides, so to make a first party experience with speaker notes and good UX would be understandably very popular.
