What it does
Supernova manages design-system information across design and code. It offers token and component management, documentation history, collaboration, delivery automation and adoption-oriented analysis.
Supernova connects Figma data, variables, Storybook and code components with the documentation a design-system team maintains. A component page can combine token lists, Figma frames, a Storybook canvas, rendered React code and written usage rules. Markdown from a repository can sit alongside those sources.
People and agents can edit the same pages, leave comments and publish updates. Page history shows who changed the content and supports restoring earlier versions. The Portal gives readers another route through the system with search, component previews and questions answered alongside matching stories.
The free Starter plan supports three editors, one design system and 20 public documentation pages. It includes three Figma sources, one Storybook source, seven days of page history and 1,000 monthly workspace credits. It does not include automatic source updates or private documentation.
Pro adds private or public documentation, ten editors, 200 private consumers, unlimited pages and automatic updates. Enterprise adds approval workflows, adoption tracking and more detailed permissions. Creating and maintaining a workspace requires an account; reading published public documentation does not use a private-consumer seat.
