Where Figma Sites runs out of road
Figma's infrastructure, Figma's rules
Figma Sites hosts your published site. No self-hosting, no existing server, no stack flexibility. Your live site lives inside Figma's platform — on their terms.
CMS is still basic
Figma Sites has basic dynamic content in beta. For anything beyond simple content fields — structured data, relationships, custom post types — it's not there yet.
SEO is limited by design
Text styles can't be properly defined for semantic HTML. That means heading hierarchy, structured data, and the SEO fundamentals that real sites depend on are either missing or require workarounds.
Clients can't manage it
Figma Sites is built for designers to publish, not for clients to edit. Handing a Figma Sites project to a non-technical client is a support problem waiting to happen.
The canvas experience.
With a real platform under it.
Kirki starts where Figma Sites does — a canvas-first builder where design freedom is the default. It ends somewhere Figma Sites can't go: a full WordPress platform with a mature ecosystem, real client editing, and production-grade SEO and CMS built in.
Infinite canvas
The same canvas-first freedom Figma Sites offers — place elements with full positional freedom, no section grid, no page box. Zoom in, zoom out, work at any scale. Powered by CSS Grid and Flexbox.
Timeline based interactions
A visual timeline editor for trigger-based, multi-step interactions — not just entrance animations. The expressive motion designers expect, without the animation conflicts Figma Sites is still working through.
Real-time collaboration
Multiple people on the same canvas simultaneously. Design, review, and iterate together in real time.
Built-in CMS
A full CMS built into the builder. Design dynamic templates, bind elements to content, manage collections — without stitching together separate plugins.
Your hosting, your rules
Kirki is a WordPress plugin. Deploy on any host you choose. Your client's existing server, your preferred stack, your infrastructure. No platform dependency.
A real ecosystem
Forms, popups, and SEO tools built in. Then the full WordPress plugin ecosystem for everything else — eCommerce, memberships, bookings, multilingual. The infrastructure of the real web, not a publishing layer on top of it.
