Figma is my go-to design tool — and over time, I’ve picked up a few tricks that make life easier:
- Use auto layout religiously for responsive designs.
- Create base components early to maintain consistency.
- Use plugins like Content Reel and Unsplash for quick mock-ups.
- Learn keyboard shortcuts — they’re magic.
With these hacks, I move from idea to prototype faster and keep my files tidy. Every second saved is time I can spend crafting better user experiences.
I also rely heavily on naming conventions and version history to collaborate efficiently with developers and stakeholders. A clean Figma file isn’t just for aesthetics — it’s for better team productivity and smoother handoffs.
