Bringing your Storybook to the next level with simple steps
Figma recently announced its new Variables product, allowing you to define and manage your design tokens directly within Figma. I have been experimenting with Figma Variables for a few weeks and am reasonably impressed with how it works. In this article, I'll share how I've been using Figma Variables to support my design projects and how I've been syncing them with my codebase with GitHub Actions and StyleDictionary, utilising a dev preview of the Figma API. For this article, I’ll focus primarily on syncing these variables one way from Figma to GitHub, making Figma the source of truth for all my design tokens.

I have been committing to free my hand from mouse for a very long time. As a programmer, it’s easy to get frustrated when I have to switch from mouse and keyboard. That’s why I use Hammerspoon – a perfect solution for macOS automation. I will list some of my most useful features when I use Hammerspoon in this post.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that, over the past year, Obsidian has become as essential to my workflow as Shortcuts. As I have been thoroughly documenting in the My Obsidian Setup series for Club MacStories members, Obsidian – which is the MacStories Selects 2021 App of the Year – is more than a text editor: it’s something more similar to an OS for writers that encompasses note-taking, Markdown writing, journaling, research, and more. At this point, just like I can’t imagine using Apple devices without Shortcuts, I can’t imagine taking notes or writing articles without Obsidian.

I am a Karabiner Elements user and had donated to it previously and even talked about some custom key mappings I use. Things had a been a bit spotty with it since macOS Big Sur but with the latest version 13.0 and macOS 11.0, 11.1, and 11.2 things were fine. However, yesterday I updated one of my Macs to 11.3 Beta and that broke Karabiner. In addition to it I noticed that my M1 Mac always reports that it restarted due to a kernel panic whenever I restart; and when I Googled for the panic report entries the first hit was Karabiner. Looks like things aren’t entirely with Karabiner and macOS Big Sur after all.
