Getting started with Lingo is easy because we offer a fully featured 30 day free trial. To start all you'll need to do is create a Lingo account.
Assembly
To start assembling your design language we recommend creating a Kit containing your team's brand assets since everyone in your organization needs to access those. Here's some directions to help you get started.
Create a Kit called "Brand Kit"
Create a Section within that Kit called "Logos"
If you have different types of logos use Headings to visually separate the different types of logos
If you want to provide contextual information on how to use the logos insert a note alongside your assets
Create a Section called "Colors"
After this step your Lingo should look something like this 👇
Distribution
Now that you have your first Kit assembled simply share it with your team by using an invitation or a public share link.
Use
Finally it's time to use your design language. Here are some things to try out.
Drag n drop or copy n paste an asset from the Mac app into a content creation program like Illustrator, Keynote or Google Slides.
Drag n drop an alternate file cut from the Mac app into a content creation program like Illustrator, Keynote or Google Slides.
Copy a HEX value from a color swatch
