Big companies Figma and Lovable might fight. Figma sent Lovable a letter.
The letter says Lovable must stop using "Dev Mode" for a new thing. Figma also has "Dev Mode." They got a special right to use this name last year.
Many things for programmers have a special mode. People call it 'dev mode'. It helps you change things. Big companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft use this name too.
Many people use "dev mode". Some companies used it before. It is a common name in many free computer programs.
Figma says 'Dev Mode' is a short name. It is not the long name 'developer mode'.
Figma sent letters to protect its name. If they don't, the name will not be special.
Some people online say this word is common. They say it should not be a brand name. They say the company Lovable should fight.
The boss of Lovable says they will not change the name.
Figma is busy. It wants to sell parts of the company.
Lovable helps people make things with computers using words. You write what you want, and it makes the computer code for you. You can change the code if you want.
Lovable is like Figma but easier. Many new companies use Lovable.
This is not just about a name. A big company is fighting a small new company. Figma had a lot of money last year.
A person from Figma said this. They said Figma did not send letters to companies like Microsoft. This is because their products are different.
Osika from Lovable says Figma should make their product good. He also says Lovable is getting customers from Figma.
Dylan Field from Figma talked with Garry Tan. Dylan said the products are not a big problem.
People like vibe coding because it is fast. But you also need to finish your work.
Osika looks happy to compete. He shared a letter and used a smiley face.
