The Builder Drop / Issue #8

February 16, 2023

Written By Builder Team

In today's newsletter, we have a new color palette update, Environments webinar replay, new docs on user permissions and Write API, and developer tips.

Happy building!

Create a color pallet from the Builder color picker: Help marketers and content editors stay within your design system whether editing text, styling content, or leveraging code components in Builder. For example, if you have a design system and want to give flexibility to editors to change the background color to one of three brand colors.

🔑 Specify user permissions by Builder environment: Specify what users can do in your Dev, Staging, QA, and Production environments.
