This talk from @inazarova.bsky.social and @objartel.bsky.social brings me so much joy. I love seeing a technical talk about color at a design conference ❤️

The cheesy Gordita crunch was also a 12/10. The Taco Bell gods were smiling upon me today.

Blessed.

BREAKING

I just had THE BEST Crunchwrap supreme that I've had in quite some time! Bravo local Taco Bell chefs, bravo.

In two weeks @figma.com is fully transitioning to UI3. Vulnerability moment. I was hesitant to switch after using UI2 for 5 years.

When I did though, honestly, it felt completely natural to me after a day or two! I wrote more about it, along with some tips here - www.figma.com/blog/making-...

On April 30, we’ll be fully transitioning to UI3, our redesigned interface that puts your work center stage. Here’s what you need to know about the change, along with tips for a smooth transition.

My buddy Capy Kyle out here trying to make a design system contribution to @figma.com Simple Design System before heading out.

Classic.

ICYMI, you can now reorder variable modes and collections in @figma.com. No more manual remapping or workarounds that can leave you with a headache later - just drag and drop!

Just realized that I didn’t go to Home Depot once in the month of March.

This is *not* a joke. Reorder your modes and variable collections in @figma.com for real!

While you enjoy your FigPals, here are some updates

Drag, drop, and reorder your modes and collections exactly how you want (without deleting or breaking dependencies!)

I'm especially fond of the visual indicators and line showing the range of colors that meet/don't meet your set contrast level. No more guessing!
Woohoo, a big win for accessible design! @figma.com now includes a *built-in* color contrast checker, making it easier to design for everyone. 🎨

Taco Bell or ___?

First day back from vacation and I made a solid pair of frames, a rectangle, and a happy little group.

How was your Monday?
