Figma Design Systems Bootcamp
Learn how to build scalable design systems in Figma with tokens, components, and libraries.
Design systems are the backbone of consistent and efficient digital products. In this 4-week Figma design system bootcamp, you’ll learn how to build, maintain, and scale design systems that improve collaboration and speed up delivery. From defining design tokens to publishing component libraries, this Figma training course equips you with the tools to streamline workflows for designers, developers, and product teams alike.
Each week, you’ll dive deeper into the process of systematizing design — starting with foundations like color, typography, and spacing, then expanding into components, variables, and tokens. You’ll also learn governance best practices: how to manage contributions, document updates, and maintain your design system’s integrity as it grows. These are the same scalable frameworks used in professional design system training programs and Figma team workshops.
With a small group of only 3–4 participants, you’ll receive direct feedback on your own projects and guidance from an experienced Figma design systems instructor. By the end of this Figma bootcamp, you’ll have hands-on experience building a mini design system inside Figma — complete with reusable components, structured libraries, and a clear roadmap for maintaining your system long-term.
