It's better when we design together
summary
PicCollage migrates from Sketch to Figma over six months as the product design team scales from 3 to 9 designers, forcing a new file structure and process; non‑designers prototype an interactive demo in one day and two hackathon projects (Typo, Wallsheet) continue into development. Internal plugins like context switch plugin and asset‑pull tools get published to the Community and speed handoffs. Meetups run 6 events with 200+ attendees, and a 50‑student classroom workshop proves collaboration at scale works.
