Using Figma’s instance swap and other component properties

Figma's component properties provide designers with a powerful tool to create customizable attributes such as variants, Boolean toggles, instance swaps, and text properties, enhancing the ability to control the appearance and behavior of components. These properties streamline design workflows by reducing the need for multiple variants and making it easier to manage and modify individual instances without affecting the main component. With the recent UI3 update, Figma offers a clearer and more efficient way to manage these properties, ensuring that design teams can maintain consistency while allowing for flexibility in creating design systems. The update also introduces improvements to the Properties Panel, enabling designers to handle instance swaps and overrides more effectively. Overall, Figma's component properties enhance productivity by simplifying the process of adjusting design elements, thereby freeing up more time for creative exploration and development.
