7 Minute Snippets: Source of Truth | Figma 

I've been designing and building web UI for 20+ years, and I believe you'll make a great head of engineering one day, Jake. Real talk.

the visuals in this presentation are beautiful, really shows the intricate in-depth appreciation and knowledge of good design principles, especially well suited for explainer-type situations like these.

I’m gonna call it: this video is going to be referred to A LOT. ❤

Loved this. Perfect acknowledgment of the realities we face. “Sometimes translation is easier than alignment” 👍

A good explanation for a sensitive topic in product development. Identifying the source of truth is the first step towards improvement.

Fantastic video, thank you! Production tip: try using a pop filter on your mic to reduce the harshness of the "p" and "s" sounds in the recording😊

Fantastic video. Thanks for making it ❤

Great explanation

“A quick polish” 🙃

Amazing

Hey Jake. Thanks for the series. Love it! We need a 7 Minute Snippets Playlist. Meanwhile, you can at least put links to the previous/next videos in the description. We're all product designers after all and we strive to make other's life easier ;) So for those who landed on this first and want to see the previous one - here you go ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gd1U79ReW00.html

Good video. It's essential that designers understand that their beautful designs are only a starting point; they are NOT the product. For many reasons -- from technical to usability to financial -- it may well be that a design cannot be implemented fully. In this case, the source of truth is actually the built product, whether it's an app or a web page or a magazine. The design is an *aspiration* that may need to be continually changed, refined or even discarded during the process. Also: pixel-perfect should not always be a design goal. Pixel-perfect hasn't been a real thing for a long time now, given the need for dynamic type, localizations, responsive layouts, accessibility settings etc.
