Good course to begin with app development in Figma. If you're looking for a course that briefs a bit about a tool and straight away use it for real-world application then this course is to go for.

Gostei bastante, não sabia nada sobre o figma e design, ele explica de maneira clara, as vezes é um pouco difícil achar as ferramentas pois estamos em aparelhos diferentes mas me deu oportunidade para explorar mais o app hahaha, recomendo de olhos fechados, consegui aprender bastante coisa mesmo sendo um curso de horas, achei bem completo para quem está iniciando!
