The more you use Figma, the more you’ll find yourself duplicating stuff. I find this extremely annoying and time-wasting. The good news is that we have something called Components in Figma. And in this video I’ll teach you what they are and how to use them so you can stop wasting your time when designing.

@lisa_jocktan
Finally, i have understood components and property. Great tutorial 👍
@Kj-gr9fv
Anyone know how I could utilize the icon variant property to connect with the Material Symbols plugin? Maybe I have to save them like in the video as individual icons but it would be great if I could swap the icon via the plugin menu and search the full Material library. Thanks for any advice!
@emeraldezy9675
Nice video. Can this component property be used on multiple elements on a Product card for instance?

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 🔄 Duplicating and modifying designs repeatedly wastes time, which components in Figma help avoid.
00:25 📖 Components are templates for reusable design elements like buttons, icons, etc.
00:52 🖼️ Components are managed in the Assets panel and can be dragged onto the canvas.
01:47 🌓 Variants allow a single component to have multiple states (e.g. default, hover).
02:54 ⚙️ Component properties minimize the need for variants by allowing dynamic changes.
04:16 ✍️ Demonstrates creating a button component with default and hover variants.
06:17 📝 Shows adding a text property to dynamically change button text.
07:21 👁️ Adds a boolean property to show/hide the button text.
08:56 🖼️ Adds a boolean property to show/hide an icon in the button.
09:49 🔃 Demonstrates using an instance swap property to change the button icon.
