What is this course about?
This course is a practical, designer-focused guide to using Figma’s Dev Mode as a powerful tool for cleaner handoffs, tighter team collaboration, and smarter product delivery. It’s built for product designers who want to think beyond pixels and understand how to set up files that engineers love—without needing to write a single line of code. You'll learn how to structure your files for clarity, annotate like a pro, and build rituals that make dev handoff smoother, faster, and more accurate.
Requirements
You should be comfortable using Figma’s core interface and components. This course is for designers, not developers—so no coding experience is required. Just a desire to create better handoffs and stronger collaboration across your team.
What you'll learn
How to use Dev Mode as a product designer (not just inspect mode)
How to organize files for dev-friendly structure and scalability
How to write smart, concise annotations developers will understand
How to prep for responsive behavior, edge cases, and state logic
How to lead clear, effective handoff walkthroughs
How to use Dev Mode to improve your own design quality before launch
Who is this course for?
This course is for product designers who are tired of sloppy handoffs, repeated Slack questions, and misinterpreted designs. Whether you’re embedded in a product squad, working in an agency, or freelancing with developers, this course will help you work more confidently and collaboratively with engineering teams. If you want to design smarter—and have your files speak for themselves—this course is for you.
