At Storybook, we believe the software industry is converging on Component-driven UIs. Our mission is to accelerate that shift to components.

Developers build components in Storybook and capture key states as stories. Figma’s variants similarly allow designers to represent component states more granularly on the design side.

I’m excited to share a sneak peek of our new Figma plugin, Storybook Connect. It keeps designers and developers in sync by linking stories to variants.
