11 steps to keep Figma clean
We all probably already know how it is to receive a project from someone else. Not everyone works the same way, it’s what makes our field so varied. We need to spend some time focusing on adapting.

In this article, I will go over 11 steps that may help you and your teammates in organizing your work in Figma.
1. Figma variants

Let’s start with a simple one. Figma variants let you create different variants that you may later use. For example a button. We may have different states of a button - primary, secondary with an icon or without an icon.
All of these options can be nested within variants of one component in Figma. Remember to do it each time you see a new variant and also remember to add auto-layout. It will greatly accelerate your work.
