What's up, everyone? Slow news week, so we're going deep instead of wide: Figma's turning its canvas into a code editor, Astro 7 went all-in on Rust, Anthropic wants @Claude in your Slack, and Railway's now in your pocket. Let's dive in.

Figma wants to be your code editor. At Config 2026, the canvas became a place to write and run real code: new code layers turn any design into an interactive, promptable code block. Add Figma Motion, AI-generated shaders, and generative plugins you build by describing them. The catch: everything is waitlisted or "starting in July," so for now it's a very polished promise.
Astro 7 is a speed release. Astro 7.0 rewrites the .astro compiler in Rust, moves Markdown and MDX to a Rust pipeline, and rides Vite 8's new Rolldown bundler. Together they cut build times significantly, with some sites building more than 2x faster. Advanced Routing adds a src/fetch.ts entrypoint with Hono compatibility, route caching is now stable with edge CDN providers, and a background dev server and JSON logs auto-enable the moment Astro detects a coding agent driving it.
Anthropic put @Claude in your Slack. Claude Tag lets anyone tag Claude in a channel to hand off work; it's "multiplayer," learns from the channels it sits in, and runs tasks proactively or on a schedule. Anthropic says 65% of its product team's code now comes from an internal version. An agent with ambient, cross-channel memory and standing tool access is a lot to wire in, it's Enterprise/Team-only beta, and it retires the old Claude in Slack app within 30 days.

I believe high-quality education should be as accessible as possible to everyone, no matter where in the world they live. So, purchasing power parity is built in to the price. If you don't see a banner with a discount and believe you should, please let me know!
Railway released a phone app. The latest changelog brings Railway to iOS: get alerts, inspect services, read logs, and let the Railway Agent stage a fix you approve from your phone. It also adds one-click PgBouncer in front of Postgres, which gives transaction pooling by default, services auto-migrated to the pooled URL, with the unpooled escape hatch kept for migrations and LISTEN/NOTIFY. Full template management lands in the CLI, too.
OpenAI is licensing images now. Getty and OpenAI signed a multi-year display deal putting Getty's licensed library into ChatGPT search and discovery. It's simply another of Getty's AI display deals. We saw Perplexity get one last year. And it’s another sign OpenAI would rather pay to show licensed content than keep fighting over where its visuals come from. I still have a hard time seeing how the artist’s win in all this, though.
