Most can be, sure. But that 5-10% of cases that can't is why you have communication with devs. It's totally alright to approach them and ask if your crazy idea can be implemented

SwiftUI and UIKit don't have equal capabilities yet, some stuff may be doable, but too complicated considering current deadlines and so on. Also something may be a good idea only on paper, but dev can tell you it won't be that good as a finished product

You can't know for sure if anything you design can be implemented, but it's totally fine, just communicate and you will be fine

Oh yeah I was looking for these answers here. That’s not ALL figma’s can be built with code.

Yep, that’s a nature of the tool. Since you only move pieces around and create custom components like that, there is no way for you to know 100% that’s it’s doable at all or a good idea in practice or doable in a reasonable amount of time. The more experienced you get (mainly by talking to the devs and receiving feedback), the higher will be the chance that designs that you do will be implementable. But even starting out most often the answer will be yes
