Lounge S3: Designers

Day 2: /lounge S3 - Designers

Do you name your layers?

Why or why not?

(pics or it didn’t happen)

Always name layers in design system components as a courtesy to other designers and to influence naming of components in codebase.

Usually name layers in complex prototypes for my own sanity + easy smart animations.

Sometimes name parent frames in hand-off ready files for clarity.

Prediction: Figma releases an AI-powered layer auto-naming feature within the next year.

lol in my defense it’s a spec from 3 yrs ago. I was new & trying to make a good first impression 😇

Oh?! That’s what I get for ignoring Config 🙃

They’ve already announced layer naming with Figma AI coming later this year 👀👀👀
