How to Create a Style Guide in Figma
Introduction:
The Figma style guide is a comprehensive set of design principles, guidelines, and standards that explain how to create a unified, consistent look and feel across all products and platforms. It helps teams to create a consistent, recognizable brand experience that can be easily understood and used by all stakeholders.
Typography
First to create a clean-looking design you'll need good typography. Typography is an important part of the design. If you use typography properly, your design will become more attractive. For free typography, you can use google fonts or other sources.
Type Scale
Having a solid type scale is one of the most important elements to help you establish your content hierarchy.
Colors
To create your color palette you'll need at least one primary color, grays, and two shades, black and white. To create your tints and shades for the primary colors try a Color Designer plugin.
Buttons & Forms
To create your necessary buttons and forms for your design so that you can easily complete your design.
Icons
If you're using a specific icon set, an illustration set or a very specific style of imagery would also include all of that in the style guide. It's especially important to know what not to use to help your brand remain consistent and have a clear visual language.
Layout Grid
The layout grids, columns, rows and margins are invisible elements in the design. Using these will make your design look more balanced and have consistent negative spacing. Proper use of white space can emphasize the importance of the content.
Others Components
User interface (UI) elements are the parts we use to build apps or websites. They add interactivity to a user interface, providing touchpoints for the user as they navigate their way around; think buttons, scrollbars, menu items and checkboxes, avatar, nav bars and many more.
