Question

Why on earth can't I organize my components into as many folders as I want?

I want to organize my components into Icons, Buttons, Fields etc but these are already inside a folder and figma does not let me create any more nested folders so I need to browser all my 200+ components from one heap? And I’m not going to move them out from the folder because I need the parent folders too. Very bad designer experience!

    Hey ​@Nicolas Tuomaala 

     

    Dave here from Figma’s community support 😊

    You can organize your components into as many folders as you want by creating sections on the Components page. Use the Section tool (Shift S) to create sections and drag your components into them. Naming conventions with slashes also help create hierarchy and keep components organized in the assets tab.
