Stringer

About this plugin

A copy management system for content and localization teams. Author, review, translate, and ship every UX string from one source of truth, built on native Figma variables.Your product copy deserves a source of truth.Right now it's scattered. Half in Figma layers, half in Notion, and the rest in a spreadsheet a translator hasn't opened in three weeks. Nobody is certain which strings are final, what's been localized, or what already shipped.Stringer turns your Figma file into the system of record for every UX string. Copy lives as native Figma string variables, so it stays in sync with your designs and is never trapped inside a plugin's database. Stringer adds the layer Figma leaves out: status tracking, review and approval, character limits, tagging, and full multilingual management.It's built for the people who own the words. UX writers draft and propose. Owners review and approve. Localization teams work in as many languages as they need, RTL included. Every string stays bound to the designs it belongs to.Organize and govern your copyGroup strings into Areas (Onboarding, Auth, Search, etc.) with a custom order you controlTag every string with a Type (Button, Heading, Body, Notification, Error, Empty state, Label, and more)Set a Status per string: Draft, Ready, or Published, so the whole team knows what's shippedAdd Tags for any extra metadata and filter by them instantlySet a character limit per string and get a live count warning when you go overWrite and editComposer at the top lets you write a new string, pick its Area and Type, and add it in one keystroke (Cmd/Ctrl+Enter)Click any string to edit it inlineAuto-generated semantic IDs, like onboarding_body_welcome_back_001, can be copied with one clickDrag to reorder your Areas in edit modeMulti-language and RTLAdd as many language modes as you need.
