8 Figma plugins for design system management
Blog post from LogRocket
Figma is the most popular tool for creating design systems, offering UI design and basic prototyping, though it lacks comprehensive documentation features. To compensate, integrations and plugins like zeroheight, Storybook, and Supernova enhance its capabilities for design system management, each catering to different needs. Zeroheight excels in documentation efficiency, while Storybook is more developer-friendly by allowing interactive code snippets. Supernova combines features from both, converting design styles into code. Additional tools like Tokens Studio, Sticky Notes, Styler, Rename It, and Similayer further assist in managing design systems by offering functionalities like design token creation, style organization, and layer renaming. As Figma continues to evolve, with the introduction of widgets and more developers using the platform, the landscape of design system tools is maturing, suggesting future enhancements in design-to-code features and integrations.
