Great guest post by David Luhr at Figma’s blog on what it takes to ship a commercial UI kit with over 1,400 components and 10,000 distinct elements, all while keeping quality and usability top of mind. I love the work the Tailwind team is doing, and this is a great look into their process.

A free preview of the official Tailwind UI Figma Kit, containing all the Text, Color, and Effect Styles found in Tailwind UI, along with 40+ complete components that use the latest Auto Layout and Variants features. See also a blog post on its creation above.

Update from November 2nd, 2021: Figma assets have been discontinued.

What an exciting leak! ​“FigJam is a new whiteboard space where you can explore ideas with your team.”

“In 2017, InVision was the top prototyping tool, with 60% of UXTool survey respondents indicating they used it. Only three years later, their user share fell to 23%, with more than half of those people only using it as a secondary tool. In contrast, Figma has seen an explosion of growth and popularity, rising from about 8% of respondents using the tool in 2017 to about 57% in 2020.”

An overview of tools for converting Adobe Illustrator files to Figma. Based on this test, XD2Sketch works the best and has a comprehensive set of converters between popular design tools (the name is misleading), but their price is steep.

Speaking of Zeplin, this is a pretty good overview of how a digital agency ArcTouch uses it together with Figma.

Warren Tobias describes the whole process of developing a proper design system and replacing Sketch, Abstract, and Flinto with Figma. Interestingly, they continued using Zeplin for the handoff process as their development and engineering team is mostly outsourced.

Great skit by Pablo Stanley that made rounds in the community. Love how both Figma and Sketch played along and changed their names on Twitter for a while!

Results from a fantastic survey of over 4,000 designers run by Taylor Palmer. Figma basically destroyed the competition in almost every category this year. Compare with the results from 2019 that I shared a year ago in Issue #3.
