Figma's initial onboarding focuses on shortness and conciseness with a 4-step modal

Figma uses a popup modal to onboard first time users and get them started with the platform as soon as possible. The modal also features a 4-step progress bar down below the modal.

Why it’s great:

Only the important steps - Figma does a great job of bringing the most important steps of the onboarding process together in one short modal: the personalization, social proof, upgrade, call to action for starting right away.

Cool UX - The design of the modal as well as the responsiveness of each element on the steps make the onboarding modal up to Figma’s own standards.

Progress bar - Though not too visible, Figma’s progress bar makes it easier for users to go through the onboarding process.
