Figma Variables: A Game-Changer for Design Systems

The introduction of Variables in Figma has completely reshaped how teams handle design systems. Instead of manually updating styles or swapping components, Variables allow you to create dynamic tokens for colors, typography, and even spacing. Imagine flipping your entire product design from light mode to dark mode with one click — Variables make it possible. This not only improves consistency but also accelerates experimentation, giving designers more room to play with themes, states, and responsive adjustments.
