I haven't fully thought this through but... I think there's a lot of potential in using Figma Make embeds in Figma Design for inline and interactive design system documentation

The component audit widget is live! It scans your Figma library, then: – Shows components by page – Shows components missing variables/styles – Lists components without descriptions – Lists components without links – Print a summary frame for a log

The new Dropbox brand website is so good 👏 I think it's one of the few scroll-based websites I've really enjoyed using because of how incredibly slick and interactive it is Have a play:

Found a dream plugin for making typography scales, it creates: – Variables – Styles with variables as values – Sticker sheet on the canvas And you can build ramps based on a ratio/calculation as well, saving a tonne of time

The design system to do list widget is now live! It's a tool to help check off component requirements before it gets to production: states, accessibility, documentation, tokens The goal is to bridge design and dev, increasing confidence in production

If your colors are looking a little flat, try adding a subtle gradient: 1. Open up the HSB color format 2. Add a vertical gradient 3. Bump the first stop saturation down by 5 4. Bump the second saturation stop up by 5

Just hit publish on a new guide! It's called "Variable mapping and design system structure" and you can grab it here: It's hopefully a way to provide some guidance on how to structure your variables and collections according to how your system is set up

I remember a while ago someone said that Notion doesn't have a design system, so I think I might make something I'll build how I would approach making a Figma kit in the Notion style, with naming conventions and an opinion on component structure and then post to the community

Building a new idea tonight – what if there was a global design system documentation website for boilerplate components? I worry that every team writes and maintains docs for common components: inputs, buttons, badges but they could just point everyone to an open source tool?
