#designsystem hot take: Design systems distill & magnify healthy practices & patterns while exposing & challenging unhealthy ones. The amount of resistance a healthy DS team experiences is directly related to the unhealthiness of the organization’s established ways of working.

#Config2023 Launch 2: Variables You can now use variables to make adaptable designs—we’re talking different brand themes, device formats, and more. And yup, variables can be exported as tokens in case that’s helpful 😉. 👇 See variables in action

Have you ever wanted to design just by typing? Initially a Config 2020 demo, a powerful search on Configurator was brought to life by @bettergui and @vinvan, allowing designers to create entire new screens in seconds.

In my 🌎 DX = ( developer | designer ) experience I love days when I’m coding/designing + everything just flows. When you’re in the zone, crafting effectively, feeling amazing as you bring something to life. My wish is for the tools that we create to multiply this feeling~✨

After joining the Polaris team at @ShopifyUX, and spending more than half a year living and breathing design systems, I figured it was time to share some thoughts. Spoiler alert: They are flawed, and will always be. ux.shopify.com/design-system… #design #uxdesign – at Braga, Portugal

I've been building a Figma plugin called Shortcuts as part of @tricycleai to create powerful automations for your Figma workflows. This demo is a simple example, but you can imagine combining any set of actions together including fetching URLs, looping over selections, etc
Create powerful automations for your Figma workflows with Shortcuts. Join the waitlist to be one of the first to use it tricycle.ai/shortcuts

Maintaining a design system for 300+ UX designers is no easy feat. In a new episode of Coffee with Charli, @charliprangley speaks with product design leads @sarahill22 and @HYPD about the evolution of @ShopifyUX's design system. Watch now on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=aJ9yZgZb…

Just open-sourced a @figmadesign plugin to fetch and populate data from GitHub. The published plugin is private to our org, but hopefully the implementation is useful for anyone trying to build something similar 😊 github.com/brianlovin/figma-…

When designing an app, I find it really helpful to have a few reference examples to help validate UI/UX pattern ideas. Here are a few of my favourites that I have bookmarked. Any other apps I should check out?
