Whoaโ€“It's March?
Hello again. As a reminder, this will be a monthly newsletter.
Here's the latest from Design Systems:
We've been strategizing around short-term and long-term solutions based on existing immediate needs and general needs of the Firefox UX team. The updates below will reflect such a strategy.
๐Ÿ†˜ Component Testing Crew: Looking for volunteers!
  • What?
    • We are looking for designers that want to join our crew to test component usability and functionality in Figma.
  • When?
    • 1-2 monthly Zoom sessions.
  • Why?
    • We want everyone in Firefox UX to give us feedback on how components in Figma work!
    • You will learn how to build Figma components and test their usability.
    • You will become an advocate for best component building practices.
    • You will be able to bring back Figma knowledge to your team!
  • Cool. How do I sign up?
