Component previews and descriptions

We’re excited to introduce component previews and descriptions! Alongside other recent additions like component groups, it’s now easier than ever to find the component you’re looking for — without having to add it to the canvas first.

Hover over any component in the components panel to see it in action before adding it to the canvas. The component preview also includes an optional description, which can be added to any new or existing component from the component settings. The description will also be used when searching for components, allowing you to add keywords that don’t appear in the component name.
