A new plugin from Microsoft to help you quickly annotate focus and tab order flow for keyboard and screen reader users.

Luis shows how converting the whole GitHub Primer buttons library to variants took less than a minute.

A former designer at Lyft makes the case against using Figma in a large organization. Because Abstract uses a real Git repository to store Sketch files, it’s ​“allowing for a structured approach to file organization at a micro and macro level.” I’m not familiar with permissions on an Organization plan, but that sounds like a nightmare: “…imagine you have thousands of business-critical files shared by 250 designers all of which are editable by the whole team by default!”

The team members from Shopify, Condé Nast, and Harry’s shared their experiences creating multi-brand design systems in a livestream a few months ago. This post shares some of the highlights from it.

Official design resources with all the new stuff announced at WWDC, including files for all platforms and in multiple formats, except for Figma. This is a big omission on Apple’s part, but luckily we have a thriving community that quickly rose to a challenge.

A detailed look into how Microsoft is building a cross-platform Fluent Design System. They have an interesting take on building a Figma plugin to move away from fixed values and toward consistent design tokens that later translated into platform-specific code values.
