“Figma’s Designer Advocate Luis Ouriach has been collecting your questions in chat and online. He’ll dig in with our speakers to tackle design systems questions big and small.”
Luis talks to Santosh Komaragiri from Dataguard, who showed how they manage their Figma workspace. Their team has built some incredibly detailed product, marketing, and brand design systems which shows how you can take Figma to new levels of usage.
