I'm exactly the same as you @danielvaughn.
I like Figma but everything in the design tools space feels like it light years behind dev tool. Particularly around anything to do with tokens.
Tokens are just variables. Ideally you should be able to reference one token with another token (ala variables) and NO DESIGN TOOL DOES THIS. It's maddening.
Right??? I just want to say "here are my colors, here are some spacing values, here are some font families". Then I want to be able to compose them into text styles and the like, etc etc. It feels like this shouldn't be a hard thing to build.
