# Resources

The [SketchPress](https://github.com/10up/SketchPress) project includes a library of Gutenberg design components helpful for designing and prototyping:
## Figma
The [WordPress Design team](https://make.wordpress.org/design/) uses [Figma](https://www.figma.com/) to collaborate and share work. If you'd like to contribute, join the [#design channel](https://app.slack.com/client/T024MFP4J/C024MFP4Q) in [Slack](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/) and ask the team to set you up with a free Figma account. This will give you access to a helpful library of components used in WordPress. They are stable, fully supported, up to date, and ready for use in designs and prototypes.

### How to contribute

These components are built to be used in [Sketch](https://www.sketchapp.com) for Mac. Users on other platforms may have luck importing the file to [Figma](https://www.figma.com) (Mac/Windows/Linux) or [Lunacy](https://icons8.com/lunacy) (Windows).

Please note that these are mockups, so they may not be 1:1 accurate. It is also possible that the Sketch files aren’t up to date with the latest version of Gutenberg itself, as development sometimes moves faster than the Sketch updates.

If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to ask in the #design channel on the WordPress community Slack.
