Figma’s Schema 2025 event introduces key design system updates to help teams navigate the AI era, including:

• Extended collections for multi-brand design systems
• Slots feature for more flexible component customization
• Check designs linter to align variables with design systems
• Performance improvements (30-60% faster actions)
• Code Connect UI to bridge design and code more easily
• Make kits and npm package imports for Figma Make
• Native variables import/export support
• Increased variable mode limits (10-20 modes)

Amazing to see the possibilities of choose your own adventure style videos and narratives in the future.
