In this issue you will find 34 links to fresh and useful releases, the authors of which make a significant contribution to the development of the professional community of designers and developers, as they do it for free. In today's release there will be a summary of what I have already published on the Channel “Useful to the Designer” and something else ...

By the way, if you use Figma , I recommend paying attention to our ready-made design systems . They help freelancers complete more orders per month, programmers can create beautiful applications on their own, and the Timlids run sprints faster using ready-made design systems for teamwork.

And if you have a serious project, our team is ready to deploy a design system within the organization based on our developments and tailor it to specific tasks using Figma. Web / desktop, and any mobile. We are also familiar with React / React Native. Write to T: @kamushken
