Welcome to this week's edition of our newsletter.

Figma teases the introduction of new tools for previewing glass effects, right in time for the new Liquid Glass introduced by Apple.

But that's not all because the new official iOS and iPad 26 UI Kit has also been published by Apple with all the new system components in Liquid Glass.

Now designers have all the tools they need to start shaping the next generation of interfaces with the Liquid Glass paradigm of iOS and iPadOS 26.

This Week
