Welcome back, Design Thinkers! I'm Matthew Sear and today, we're diving into Figma to create a super versatile icon component. Our icon will dynamically switch between a line icon, a fill icon, and a combo icon, all within a single component.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
Please set up a dynamic icon that adjusts line thickness as it scales up in size.
Adapt icons seamlessly across different screen sizes (small, medium, and large).
Use Figma collections to streamline your design process.
We’ll cover setting up the Pixelink Design System Lite and guide you through creating and using these adaptive icons. This project link is in the description box below.
By the end of this video, you will have a dynamic, adaptable icon that is easy to use across any project.
