Penpot Fest is kicking off now! You can join in and watch live at https://penpot.app/penpotfest

I’ve made a free template for component variants and it’s now up in the Penpot Hub. Import the file to see how simple and complex components can utilise variants (including using design tokens!)

New release! Penpot 2.10 is here 🎉
✨ Variants are now available!
And also, Design Tokens get more typography options plus plenty of quality-of-life improvements

Keywords : #penpot #opensource and #design ?
Variants have landed in @penpot and tomorrow I’m doing a live hands-on demo to get you up to date.
I’ll also cover some component basics and design tokens goodness. Join me at 2PM UTC for live Q&A.
Version 2 of my design tokens starter kit is now downloadable from the Penpot Hub.
@penpot introduced support for font size tokens in last week’s 2.9 release, so I’ve added some starter tokens and demos for those.
I’ve also made a load of improvements for modular and linear scales, and you can now use the golden ratio, minor second, major third, and so on.
All feedback and suggestions very welcome!

This is a great 2023 presentation by Máirín Duffy ( @mairin) & Madeline Peck, about the benefits of using #PenPot ( @penpot) in design projects at Fedora and other Free Code projects;

I think that @laura did an excellent job with her @penpot course! Her lessons are short and straight to the point. She starts from the very basics so that anyone, even with zero knowledge about penpot or similar tools, can jump in and start learning. That's probably one of the best moves the #Penpot team could do now: provide an onboarding tutorial to welcome newcomers! Can't wait for the rest of the course to be published! Check it out!

NeoComment will come with "Forest" and "Beach" themes both available on light and dark mode 🤩.
I need to show some more details for items in Explore view which is currently not available in the "trending" APIs of NeoDB, so I will have a hard time to initiate multiple requests to NeoDB instances. If I face rate limits I might be forced to show less items in the explore.
Thanks to @penpot I'm not a designer but Penpot made everything much easier for me.

@racchio thank you! I’m so glad you’ve found it helpful so far.
I’ll see what we can do about something onboarding-related. Are you imagining onboarding for someone who is totally new to design tools?

#figma folks, any of you switch to Penpot recently? I love the Penpot team and have used it myself personally but curious if any of you are on teams that have migrated to it?

I used to love #Penpot and still want to love it. Pushed for it a few times, but after years of many people asking, *it still cannot make a simple page that scrolls* (I'd love to be wrong, please show me how to do it!).

So sadly no, it looks like our priorities are not aligned. Will have to wait a few more years. :/
