We use Figma for UI design at work. I really like it.

I'm not a designer, but I'm a developer that has to build the system. It has our internal UI library integrated into it, so the mockup looks practically identical to the actual implementation. When I click on a component, it shows the component name and a link to its documentation. Runs great in a browser without having to install an app. Really nice piece of software.

I'm glad the Adobe acquisition didn't go though... I was scared Adobe would ruin it. I feel bad for all the Figma employees though... They were going to all receive a lot of money as a result of the acquisition, and everything was going well until it was blocked :/
