Book Description:
Figma isn't just a design tool; it's the modern designer's command center
Simon Jun, COO at Dotidot, longtime Figma lecturer, and organizer of the Czech Friends of Figma community, built this book from the trenches of real product work. After years of untangling messy files, rescuing failing handoffs, and coaching teams at scale, he distilled what actually works into a practical, recipe-driven guide.
Over time, Simon saw the same problems show up again and again: bloated files, broken handoffs, and design systems that couldn't scale. This book is his way of sharing the patterns, tools, and habits that helped teams move past those roadblocks and build stronger, more connected design processes in Figma.
Inside, you'll learn how to structure files for real collaboration, use design tokens without chaos, build accessible, scalable libraries, and hand off to developers with confidence. You'll see how to automate repetitive work with plugins and AI, run async reviews, and bake feedback loops into your process so projects keep moving, without losing polish.
What You Will Learn:
- Master advanced collaboration workflows to reduce rework and keep design projects moving.
- Build scalable design systems with tokens, variables, and accessible components.
- Deliver clean handoffs using specs, annotations, exports, and Dev Mode.
- Create accessible systems that meet WCAG standards and work at scale.
- Engage stakeholders effectively through clear reviews and interactive presentations.
- Leverage plugins and AI to automate tasks and accelerate design work.
Who this book is for:
This book is written for UX and UI designers who already have a basic understanding of Figma and want to advance beyond the fundamentals. Product managers and developers who work closely with design teams will also benefit from learning design practices, building scalable systems and better collaboration practices.
