It's hard to believe that almost 5 years ago, we launched Zeplin 1.0 here on Product Hunt. Our goal was to simplify the process of communicating design specs and we had zero users then. Today, we’re proud to support 3 million users—and announce Zeplin 3.0! 🍇 Zeplin 3.0 enables a more integrated, customized workflow for your entire team with two new features: 1. Connected Components 2. Zeplin API Can't wait to hear what you all think!
Sounds very good and I wish you all the best with the release of the new version . Maybe as a "future-feature-idea" I thought about why not having ONE place (like Zeplin) for housing all components from different platforms (like Figma, Sketch etc.). For example: you create a component in Sketch and could use it in Figma as well with all options (like auto-layout etc) applied.

Thank you Sascha! That's definitely an idea we've brainstormed on for a while but didn't prioritize so far. Teams store their components in Zeplin in styleguides right now, so it's possible to build a solution using our new API. I'm just not sure if we have enough data on our side to recreate them perfectly back in the design tool—definitely something worth checking out!
We've been using Zeplin at Voiceflow for about 2 months now. I'm really impressed and our eng team is happy with it. Super stoked about Connected Components- going to get our Storybook hooked up today and start playing around.

Zeplin has become such a staple in our team that we now use it as part of our pitch to companies we work with.

Thanks Ashim, let us know when you give it a try. Can't wait to hear more!
Definitely!
Zeplin is by far the worst product I use in my day-to-day job, it's nightmarishly unreliable. Even something as simple as displaying the screens, roughly 20% of the time it fails to render and just shows a white screen. I thought this would be an issue that would get fixed but it's persisted from months. Similarly, basic features like "download this screen as a PNG" are hidden in weird ways. For example you can only do this from the web app (not the desktop app) and you can't do it while viewing a screen, you have to go to the index and right click on the screen you want. Do not use this product.
I love the way Zeplin is evolving! The best tool for developer-designer collaboration 👏👏👏
