Office Hours: Design Systems in Figma Make

Figma Make enables builders of all kinds to generate high-quality prototypes quickly. But as we know, functionality and speed are just one piece of the prototyping story. What’s just as important is how well those prototypes align with your existing applications.

With Figma Make, we’re striving to help your team create prototypes that not only look and feel like your designs, but that actually utilize your design systems under the hood.

In this livestream, Alex Mullans, Product Manager at Figma, and Brandon Guo, Software Engineer at Figma, discussed how we are evolving Figma Make so that teams can:

• Leverage both public and private npm packages within Figma Make’s architecture.
• Improve Make’s ability to understand and utilize design system components through guidelines.
• Templatize core product surface areas in Make to give builders a consistent starting point.

The session included a presentation, demo, and live Q&A.
