Zeplin overview

What is Zeplin?

Zeplin is a collaboration and handoff solution, which enables enterprises to share ideas, organize projects and create products using a digital workspace. The platform assists users with generating global style guides, enabling designers and developers to organize, update and share design system colours, text styles, codes, and other components in a centralized repository with drag-and-drop capabilities.

Zeplin lets administrators add descriptions to a variety of design elements and include a redirect link to a code database, allowing developers to search the existing codes. The software offers a host of features such as projects interlinking, multiple versions, data archiving, documentation management, change notifications, and custom extensions. The permissions management functionality allows administrators to provide role-based access, enabling members to view content, create projects along with style guides or edit resources.

Zeplin includes a team projects dashboard, which enables teams to view and join available projects. Developers can export design files using Figma, Sketch, and Adobe Photoshop CC plugins. Additionally, it facilitates communication among teams through integrations with Slack, Jira and Trello.

Pros
“It's great for getting my designs across to the developers in a way that makes sense to them, which is incredible. But I sometimes wish it did more than that, especially when we're juggling many tasks and need more from our tools.”

“Instead, I share the design files directly with the developers, allowing them to retrieve the necessary code.”

Belinda D.

Designer

“In a few projects, I have also used Zeplin as a designer, to handover the High Fidelity wireframes, to the development team, in order to make a mockup for Product Demos. As our organization mainly uses Sketch or Figma as a primary design tool, Zeplin has been an extremely useful tool for us to share design assets with the development team.”

Cons
“Auto conversation tool for assets doesn't contain AVIF format, this plugin should be updated.”

“Zeplin puts the artboards in the order that they were created, not in the order that the file is organized, so when you change the UX it can become confusing for the engineering team”
