Issue #16

Constraints and Layout Grids. Design by design. Design systems.

I decided not to send a newsletter last week, as the focus was on more important topics and conversations. While that’s still the case, let’s try to get back to our regular broadcasting.

In this issue, we’ll learn how to use Constraints with Layout Grids, how to control spacing with spacer components and Auto Layout, and see how a component-based approach can be applied to an illustration system. We’ll also look at how Microsoft builds Fluent UI design system, and how Dylan Field pitched Figma to the investors in the early days. Enjoy!
