Fireworks CS6 was obsessed with optimization. The "Slice" tool was integral to the workflow. Designers could carve up a design into HTML table cells (the standard of the era) and export individual slices with different compression settings. You could have one slice as a transparent PNG, another as a high-quality JPG, and a third as a GIF, exporting them all simultaneously.
If you use Figma today, you are using the spiritual successor to Fireworks. Concepts like "Components" in Figma are the evolved grandchildren of Fireworks' "Symbols." The way Figma handles export settings mirrors the optimization logic of Fireworks. adobe cs6 fireworks
