Accelerating Time-to-Market & Streamlining Handoffs
The focus on speed and efficiency extends directly to the crucial initial phases of a project, from design to first launch.
From Design Vision to Live Content: Figma to Storyblok
Bridging the gap between design and development is a critical element of an efficient composable strategy. The Figma to Storyblok integration is a powerful tool designed to eliminate the friction between design vision and structured content. This allows designers to use the tools they love (Figma) and automatically generate the necessary Storyblok components, models, and content fields. The result? Development teams receive clean, pre-structured content requirements, drastically accelerating the handoff process and ensuring design fidelity is maintained from prototype to live experience. This integration is a game-changer for speeding up initial builds and making iterative design updates seamless.

Blueprints for Rapid Kickoff
While already available, the planned extension of Blueprints is highly relevant for any brand looking to accelerate their composable journey. Blueprints are pre-configured environments and best-practice content structures that allow for rapid project kickoffs. By extending this feature, Storyblok enables development teams to inherit proven, optimized setups, significantly reducing the initial development time and ensuring new projects are built on a solid, scalable foundation.
