Discover how to use Figma's design system analytics tool to streamline your design process, enhance teamwork, and make informed design choices. Turn your insights into actionable steps. Elevate your projects.
With Figma’s design system analytics tool, designers uncover key insights into the use, efficiency, and uniformity of their design elements. By tracking the frequency of component and style usage across projects, it reveals patterns and identifies areas ripe for improvement or standardization. Fully grasping these analytics enhances collaboration, optimizes workflows, and ensures brand guidelines are followed, resulting in smoother and more cohesive design system management.
Make sure you've got the Figma file you want to check out ready to go. Open up Figma and head to the specific file or project that has your design system components.
Click on the "Resources" icon up in the top-right corner of the Figma interface. In the search bar, type "Design System Analytics" and pick it from the list of plugins. Hit “Run” to get the tool going.
In the Design System Analytics Tool, you'll need to choose the components you want to analyze. This could be buttons, text fields, icons, or any other reusable parts in your design system.
The tool lets you tweak the analysis parameters. You can decide to analyze based on how often components are used, their variants, or even look for inconsistencies. Adjust these options to fit what you need.
Once you've set your components and parameters, click on the “Analyze” or “Run Analysis” button. The tool will then process your file and gather data based on what you specified.
When it's done, the tool will show you a detailed analytics report. This report might have charts, graphs, and tables showing how components are used, variant distribution, and any discrepancies in your design system.
If you need to, you can export the analytics report. Look for an export button or option in the tool interface to save the data as a CSV file or image format for further analysis or presentations.
Use the insights from the analytics report to improve your design system. This might mean updating component variants, enhancing consistency, or getting rid of underused elements.
