"So regardless of the content, you will upvote just because it's something from Figma?"
Not what I was saying at all...I don't upvote anything Figma related solely because I'm a fan of Figma. Why does this community feel so hostile?
For the past year I've been working on teams trying to figure out how to make a design system. I feel like we all have a lot to learn so any resources or input is good. I appreciate that Figma is thinking about this and hopefully optimising their software to support design systems. FWIW, I work on a team that exclusively uses Sketch (and a Sketch library as our design system) and while that experience isn't terrible, it also isn't great. I'm always hunting for better solutions. I don't have much loyalty to software, just whatever solves my problem the best at that moment.
I upvoted this as I'm a big fan of Figma (I have no affiliation with Figma). I don't often comment as it takes more thought and effort than upvoting.
Frank Chimero continues to be my favourite writer on design topics.
I'm surprised Photoshop even made the list.
animation - fine grained animation of interfaces but also silly animations for fun
it's really cool but it bothers me that all instructions are in ALL CAPS. It makes it hard to read.
done!
I like it - can you give me your dribbble username or email? I'll invite you

Designer News is a large, global community of people working or interested in design and technology.
Have feedback?
Looks nice! Just a small bit of feedback, since many of the values you're collecting are quite specific (i.e. I weigh 58kg and ate 212 calories) then probably a slider is not the right way to go.
From the Nielsen group:
Selecting a precise value using a slider is a difficult task requiring good motor skills, even if the slider is well designed. If picking an exact value is important to the goal of the interface, choose an alternate UI element.
