Posted to DesignSystems.com 2.0, in reply to Mattan Ingram , Apr 15, 2019 Hey Mattan - couldn't agree more, and thats definitely coming. In fact - Im writing an article on building design systems for one that should be live on DesignSystems.com in the coming weeks.
Most of what I ship outside of Figma are smaller projects where I build scrappy design systems, usually combined with netlify + gulp, to get high quality work out the door fast.

Posted to Sponsor: Coordinate launches, plan new features, organize user research, and stay on the same page with Airtable, Apr 03, 2017 I really <3 airtable. Its one of the few products thats genuinely improved my workflow, and it looks great.
Posted to Dorkoy Themes - World's finest Bootstrap Themes, in reply to Zach Reed , Feb 28, 2017 Agree 100%. You can at least make it more difficult to steal by obfuscating the html, but no live demos is a killer.
Posted to Show DN: Linemotion (design agency portfolio), Sep 28, 2015 Awesome portfolio! Love the colors & interactions. One suggestion is maybe add the kind of backend/frontend work you do in case someone is looking for a specialist (PHP, Ruby, etc.)

This is really clever and I would encourage you to call yourself a "growth designer" - imo thats the terminology used in the marketplace for your skillset
