Libraries are a core feature of Figma and allow you to pull existing components into your design. Here's how to enable them.
- On a new or existing file, switch to the Assets panel and press on the book icon.
- Select all necessary libraries for your design from the START DESIGNING section of this page. Some of the libraries might appear under the Your teams tab, while some appear under Other teams.
- You can add library components to your design either by using the Assets panel or the Components overlay (Shift + i). Personally, I recommend the Components overlay as it disappears after selection and saves you from manually toggling between Layers and Assets panels.
