This is super important! Please make this happen surely couldn’t be difficult to implement!

@dvaliao this needs to be marked as solved.

Now it’s possible to copy projects:

While the change Rogie mentioned is Very Good for agencies, it doesn’t solve the problem I’m describing above.

I can now send a project to a client and keep a copy, but I can’t copy a project for myself. For example, if I have a “Boilerplate” project, I cannot copy that and create “Boilerplate 2”, with both projects living in my team.

+1 on this feature request. This simple action would save so much time.

+1! This would save us so much time! I’m so tired of relinking styles and variables in duplicated files. How is this still not possible? It’s been over 3 years since the first request!

This would mean a significant increase in efficiency and prevent misconfigurations.

Supplementary:

It should also be possible to duplicate the teams.

The use case is that there is a central organisation-wide workspace with 10+ independent teams. These teams should each be structured according to a standardised project scheme.

For this purpose, a ‘Kickstarter’ team would be prepared from which new teams would then be created in the correct setup.

Alternatively, an existing team can be marked ‘As template’. When creating new teams, you can then select either an ‘empty’ or ‘from template’.

Seriously?  I just spent many hours breaking Flowbite down so we could spin project off it.  You’re telling me I have to do this for every project because there is no simple Duplicate Project feature? Really??

Duplicating a project therefore making a reusable set up with the same design framework should be easier. It would be more important than the “not asked for” UI upgrade which frankly doesn’t save as much time in production hours than a “duplicate project folder” functionality which would allow designers to reuse and iterate on existing projects.

Samesies. Help us all save time, money, mental load. If there are interdependencies, maybe leverage the logic behind swapping a library to reconnect new files.

We also really need this 🥹

Same. Got a request to clone the project because we’re handing it over to our client. The design system is in a separate file and the Copies are linked to the original design system.

It has only been four years. Figma hasn’t even read this yet.

+1 to everything that has been said. This would save hours of time and streamline our workflow.

+1 It will be awesome that we can duplicate projets with libs and component connexion working
independently.
