@miggi@figma For image use case for instance, our cards have several aspect ratios. In practice, they can be set up to any column span on a grid on the CMS side. In mockups, we had to find a way to reproduce this effect with the cards resizing but the ratio staying true.
@buriedsignals I won't take credit for prototyping the entire story in Figma by myself. A good part of the work was laid down by Tommaso Renzini.
But yes, I usually prototype the entire design (and interactions) in Figma before development.
@danmall 1 month project are fast-paced. They're rewarding because I get to see the results faster but they're often less impactful. They're less likely to get delayed.
I like how they help me keep my cash flow high since the payments are closer in time.
@danmall 6 months projects are super rewarding because they give us bigger scope = bigger impact. But they often become larger, clients/team gets less motivated with time etc...
Also, payments milestones are further apart.

That’s a fair and reasonable request!
In tomorrow’s newsletter, I’ll show my design system portfolio to 28,200+ subscribers.
It probably doesn’t look like what you’d expect.
