I just joined a startup where the design manager works directly with html and CC (no Figma, no design system). I’m trying to onboard fast by audit the app, but layouts change based on user inputs and all exploration work is scattered with no process.
Eng is also frustrated, they’re used to working from a Figma file and don’t have one anymore. Working with just a html file is not ideal for them, and working in build is hard bc they have no Figma to compare what should the final outcome should be.
I’m considering introducing Storybook or paper to bring some structure since I saw ppl got good result doing that.

Has anyone actually figured out how to work in this kind of environment?
