The Figma Communities feature can be extremely helpful in gaining a better understanding of common UI and UX trends, and allows designers to dive head first into other community members designs to see how they are made. The community provides free and accessible open source files that can be duplicated by anyone. This allows large and small companies to publish their design systems, UI kits, or creative explorations with the world to gain exposure, be used as a resource, and to help others learn more. A few of my favorite Figma community files are listed below.
