🦄 Most designers spend a full week building a design system from scratch.
These plugins do it in minutes.
Kigen
Generates complete design systems in minutes. Color palettes, typography scales, spacing tokens, semantic aliases. All from a few clicks.
Figr Identity
One click to generate consistent style tokens across colors, typography, spacing, effects, and grids. Then apply them to 80+ production-grade components instantly.
Batch Styler
Need to update your primary color or swap a font across the entire system? One click handles it all.
Typescales
Generates a balanced typography hierarchy automatically. No more manually calculating every type step.
Tokens Studio
A single source of truth for all design decisions. Syncs directly to code so design and development stay in sync.
Stop rebuilding the same system for every project.
Which one do you already use? 👇
Useful list, though most of these accelerate the cosmetic layer (scales, palettes, swapping a color) which was never the slow part. The week designers actually lose is in the decisions: what the system forbids, and naming tokens so they map to product intent instead of raw...

I redesigned the website for this project, keeping its core elements while making it more modern and techy with dark mode by default, eye-catching floating animations, and improved color contrast.
Do you think the redesign I made in Figma is better? Or is the original version better?

Both of them looks nice but I can clearly see a big mistake on the footer the orig light page footer should be white or blue in color. @Grecia Valero that's why everyone's voted on the dark mode
Hi everyone! 👋
For the #envatochallenge, I wanted to explore Envato in as many ways as possible, from stock assets and fonts to AI image generation, video creation, animation, mockups, and even the music for this video. To do that, I created Cherry's kitchen — a cozy café brand inspired by warm summer afternoons, homemade cherry desserts, and family gatherings.
Throughout the project, I used Envato as my main creative toolkit while bringing everything together in Figma. I designed the mascot, visual identity, packaging, café interiors, animations, and brand guidelines. And honestly... I just couldn't stop exploring. Every time I finished one part of the project, I found another way to bring the brand to life.
One of my favorite parts of the process was deciding what truly belonged in the brand identity. I explored different concepts and made the creative decision, choosing what to keep, what to refine, and what to leave behind.
Check out the process video below! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the project 🍒😍
love seeing your process for this!
Love this!
