August 2015 Update: Customizable Libraries

Summer isn’t quite over and neither are our updates. Our development team’s been hard at work on our latest feature that’ll enable both businesses and power users collaborate better with their teams — customizable libraries.
Now you’ll be able to build your own library of elements then share them with your entire team.
Let’s take a look closer at this latest update, available in UXPin right now.
1. Communicate Ideas Faster and More Easily
Custom libraries within UXPin allow you to build brand-compliant design elements that you can share with your entire team, regardless of whether they are designers or not. These pre-built custom elements enable everyone to participate in the design process from the very beginning.
Anyone can quickly mock up in idea so they can better communicate what they envision. It also makes it easier for you to move from your requirements document to actual design.
2. Less Busywork, More Focus on Design Problems
With customizable libraries, you’ll have a catalog of elements that you can quickly pull into your designs. That way you aren’t wasting time creating elements from scratch. You can reuse pre-built elements as needed or share them with anyone.
This means more time spent on figuring out tough design problems rather than spending your time creating and re-creating the same slider or tab over and over again.
3. Maintain Consistency, Both for Your Brand and Your Team
Re-usable elements means that your team will all be on the same page. Everyone will be able to use the same patterns without risking the integrity of your brand. Not only that, but it will make for a smoother workflow as you collaborate through the design process.
Because elements you add to your custom library may be available for all members of your team, custom libraries solve the problem of maintaining consistent company design assets such as logos, icon sets, menu bar, etc.
