What is Figma and why should you use it?

Figma is a free, online UX design tool and software for teams that allows you to design, prototype, and collaborate in a single, web-based platform. Figma is built for the browser, which means you don’t need to install anything or worry about compatibility issues. You can access your designs from any device and work on them in real-time with your team members.

Figma is a great choice for UI/UX designers because it offers many advantages over other design tools, such as:

• Inclusive by design: Figma allows the entire team to see and interact with the latest designs by accessing a single, live URL. You can develop a shared understanding with your whole team around the experience you are creating for your users.
• Real-time collaboration: Figma enables you to work in the same file at the same time with your team members without worrying about versioning or overriding each other’s work. You can also drop comments directly on designs or prototypes to provide and receive instant feedback, in context.
• Team libraries: Figma lets you create design systems with linked UI components and styles that your whole team can use across all of your projects. You can publish components to the team library for others to use and get updates when changes are made to shared components.
• Interactive prototyping: Figma allows you to create realistic and interactive prototypes of your designs without switching to another tool. You can add animations, transitions, and interactions to your UI elements and preview them in the browser or on your device. You can also share your prototypes with your users and stakeholders and collect feedback.
• Open and extensible: Figma is an open and collaborative platform that supports various file formats and integrations. You can import and export files from Sketch, Adobe XD, Photoshop, and Illustrator. You can also use Figma plugins and APIs to extend the functionality and customize the tool to your needs.

How to get started with Figma and set up your workspace

To start using Figma, you need to create a free account on their website. You can sign up with your email address or use your Google or GitHub account. Once you sign up, you will be taken to your dashboard, where you can see your projects, files, and drafts.

To create a new project, click on the “+” icon on the top left corner of the dashboard and give it a name. A project is a collection of files that are related to each other. You can organize your projects by folders and invite your team members to join them.

To create a new file, click on the “+” icon on the top right corner of the dashboard and choose a device preset or a custom size for your canvas. A file is a document that contains one or more pages and frames. You can use pages to separate different parts of your project, such as wireframes, mockups, and prototypes. You can use frames to create artboards for your UI elements and layouts.

To set up your workspace, you can customize the toolbar, the layers panel, the properties panel, and the viewport. The toolbar contains the tools and commands that you need to create and edit your designs. The layers panel shows the hierarchy and structure of your objects and components. The properties panel displays the attributes and settings of the selected object or component. The viewport is the area where you can see and interact with your canvas and designs.

You can also use the menu bar to access more options and features, such as file, edit, view, object, text, image, plugins, and help. You can also use keyboard shortcuts to perform common actions faster and easier.

How to create and manage design systems with Figma

A design system is a set of rules, guidelines, and components that help you create consistent and coherent UI/UX designs across your projects and products. A design system can help you save time, reduce errors, and improve collaboration and communication with your team and stakeholders.

Figma makes it easy to create and manage design systems with its team libraries feature. A team library is a collection of components and styles that you can share and reuse across your files and projects. A component is a reusable UI element that you can create from any object or group of objects. A style is a predefined set of properties, such as color, font, stroke, or effect, that you can apply to any object or component.

To create a component, select the object or group of objects that you want to turn into a component and click on the “Create component” button in the toolbar or press “Command + Option + K” on Mac or “Control + Alt + K” on Windows. You can also right-click on the selection and choose “Create component” from the menu. You will see a purple diamond icon on the top left corner of the component, indicating that it is the main component or the source of truth. You can rename the component and edit its properties in the properties panel.

To create a style, select the object or component that has the properties that you want to save as a style and click on the “+” icon next to the property name in the properties panel. You can also right-click on the selection and choose “Create style” from the menu. You can rename the style and edit its properties in the properties panel.

To publish your components and styles to the team library, click on the “Publish” button on the top right corner of the dashboard and select the project that you want to publish to. You can also choose which components and styles you want to publish and add a description for the changes. You can also update or remove your components and styles from the team library by clicking on the “Publish” button again and making the necessary changes.

To use your components and styles from the team library, click on the “Assets” tab in the layers panel and browse through the available components and styles. You can also search for them by name or filter them by project or team. To insert a component, drag and drop it from the assets panel to the canvas. To apply a style, select the object or component that you want to style and click on the style name in the properties panel.

To edit a component or a style, you can either edit the main component or style in the source file or create a local copy of the component or style in the current file. To edit the main component or style, right-click on the component or style in the assets panel and choose “Go to main component” or “Go to main style” from the menu. You will be taken to the source file where you can make the changes. The changes will be reflected in all the instances of the component or style across your files and projects. To create a local copy of the component or style, right-click on the component or style in the assets panel and choose “Duplicate to your file” from the menu. You will see a green diamond icon on the top left corner of the component, indicating that it is a local copy. You can rename the component or style and edit its properties in the properties panel. The changes will only affect the local copy and not the main component or style.

How to design and prototype UI elements with Figma

• Use constraints and auto layout to make your UI element or layout responsive and adaptive
• Use components and instances to create reusable UI elements and layouts
• Use variants and interactive components to create different states and variations of your UI elements and layouts

To prototype your UI elements and layouts, you can follow these steps:

• Switch to the prototype tab in the properties panel and select the object or component that you want to make interactive
• Drag the blue handle from the object or component to the frame that you want to navigate to
• Choose the trigger, action, animation, and transition for the interaction
• Repeat the process for the other objects and components that you want to make interactive
• Click on the “Present” button on the top right corner of the toolbar to preview your prototype in the browser or on your device
