Learning and discovery phase
Transitioning from one tool to another is never easy, especially for a large organisation like the BBC.
Even within just one product team, there are numerous elements that must be documented, recorded, and archived. After sorting through and downloading our old files from Sketch, the World Service UX team began to identify the best starting point to achieve our ultimate goal: establishing an organised Figma design library.
As a team, we collectively decided to adopt the Atomic Design structure, which consists of several distinct levels: Atoms (the foundational elements), Molecules (small, functional components), and Organisms (larger components that may include other components), among others.
