The design-to-development handoff is where products lose fidelity. Clear Figma practices prevent endless revision cycles.
Organize Your Figma File
- Name layers semantically (not "Rectangle 47")
- Use components and variants for reusable elements
- Create a dedicated "Handoff" page with specs
Document States
Design hover, active, disabled, error, and loading states. Developers can't guess what you intended.
Export Design Tokens
Colors, spacing, typography, and border-radius should map to CSS variables. Tools like Figma Tokens plugin help.
