What I wish for the future is that I am able to have a library component (external file) in a file and can perpetuate changes locally, but also inherits updates from the external file (i.e.: design system).
Basically a blend of local component and library component.
The use case: I take an asset library component and use it on my current file, I make some changes to text and style and re-use it across the flow of screens I’m designing. When I make a change to any of them, nothing happens, they are completely isolated from each other despite being a component, so I am left with two solutions:
- Detach to make it a local component and lose all the variables
- Do the hacky workaround and lose future updates from the design system file
A nest component would perpetuate local changes, but receive updates from source file
