Emil from Figma here! We have made a ton of improvements to the generated CSS code, and while we still sometimes provide absolute positioning we now separate it from the styling & flexbox code that you might actually want to pull into your codebase.
We've also introduced an API extension point so third parties can now provide their own implementation of code snippers (code generation) in Figma's Dev Mode which Anima and a few other partners have already released plugins for :)
