Create state in prototypes with variables 

Follow along → www.figma.com/community/file/...
In this video we’ll use variables to track state in order to create efficient prototypes in Figma. Together we’ll make an intricate sidebar, with collapsible sections, filtering options, and different scrolling areas.
I also cover auto layout, component variants, and various keyboard shortcuts.
