## Testing the Plugin in Figma

### Setting up the Plugin for Testing

1. **Build the plugin** using `pnpm build` or `pnpm dev` to ensure the latest changes are included.
2. **Open Figma Desktop** (the plugin development requires the desktop version, not the web version)
3. **Import the plugin**:
- Go to **Menu → Plugins → Development → Import plugin from manifest...**
- Navigate to your project directory and select the `manifest.json` file
- The plugin will appear in your **Development** section under Plugins

### Running the Plugin

1. **Launch the plugin**:
- Go to **Menu → Plugins → Development → Polychrom**
- Or use the shortcut **Cmd/Ctrl + /** and search for "Polychrom"
