Build and Organize UI Components

Add buttons, forms, cards, navigation elements, and other UI components to your workspace. Group related elements using frames, containers, and visual layouts so your system stays structured as it grows.

Document Usage Rules and Guidelines

Add notes, callouts, links, files, and supporting visuals directly on the canvas to explain usage rules, accessibility notes, developer instructions, and design decisions. Use built-in AI assistance where helpful to refine ideas or improve documentation.

Collaborate, Review, and Share

Invite designers, developers, and product teams to review the design system together. Use real-time collaboration, comments, and sharing options to gather feedback, align on decisions, and hand off the design system. Export it as a PDF, PNG, or SVG, or share the live workspace with your team.
