I moved away from Photoshop and Illustrator for web design a while back and found my home with Figma. Whether you have been in Figma for a long time, the component properties and variants are worth building into your workflow.
Figma component properties and variants are the heroes of Figma design systems, streamlining how we handle components with multiple states or versions. Imagine buttons—they can vary by size, color, or interaction states like hover, active, or disabled. By grouping these under a single component with variants, you gain clarity and consistency across your designs.
The magic happens when you pair variants with component properties. Want to swap text dynamically? Add a toggle for a specific state? Component properties make it possible, turning static components into adaptable powerhouses. It’s like giving your designs a set of tools to scale effortlessly while reducing redundancy.
