Figma just launched Dev Mode and itβs really cool. There are a lot of really awesome features that make life so much easier, from having the units in rem to a bunch of new features and a VS Code plugin, plus a bunch more. Of course, there are a few negatives as well, and I take a look at it all in this video. π Links β Figma Dev Mode Introduction: https://www.figma.com/blog/introducing-dev-mode/ β Figmaβs demo file exploring Dev Mode: https://www.figma.com/community/file/1234941143610339388 β Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction 00:43 - How to turn on Dev Mode 01:50 - Changing your language and base units 03:12 - Box model and the CSS that it outputs 04:57 - Getting assets 05:40 - Sections and ready for development 06:45 - Variables and Styles 10:00 - Tracking changes 12:25 - Connecting components to GitHub files 15:18 - VS Code Extension 22:34 - The negatives of Dev Mode #css -- Come hang out with other dev's in my Discord Community π¬ https://discord.gg/nTYCvrK Keep up to date with everything I'm up to β https://www.kevinpowell.co/newsletter Come hang out with me live every Monday on Twitch! πΊ https://www.twitch.tv/kevinpowellcss --- Help support my channel π¨βπ Get a course: https://www.kevinpowell.co/courses π Buy a shirt: https://teespring.com/stores/making-the-internet-awesome π Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/kevinpowell --- My editor: VS Code - https://code.visualstudio.com/ --- I'm on some other places on the internet too!
