Live character counter when setting the Alt Text in the Editor

Setting the alt text for an image has the text running over the icon to the right. It would be more intuitive to set a limit here or showcase if a limit did exist with a character counter.

More Hero Template Options =)

would love to have some alternative Hero templates that have two columns (one for text/menu and the other for image). It's super tricky to do background images + have text (get's too crowded OR covers up the main photo in the tablet and mobile views)

Add Loading Indicator to Symbols

When you are using symbols heavily in a page it takes some time for them to load in a preview, it would be great to include an indicator that something is actually happening to load the symbols.

Preview URL should be able to take in a value, like an object mapping locales to the URL format

For instance, say one were to use the URL format of mysite.com/usa/en, this would mean that the site is localized to follow the format of /{country}/{language}. This means that for each page or section model, you have to duplicate your code of thi...

Automatically show custom components in the Options tab

Builder doesn’t show your custom components above the fold. In order to see them, you have to click 'Show More'. This may not be intuitive for a non-developer who may be looking for those custom components to use for their content creation.

Naming a template (in the popup) might benefit from being able to see what’s behind it a little more clearly, since someone might want to name it based on its content. In this case, I want to name it as a “v002” of the one I pointed an arrow to (v...

Text type built-in Builder component should be able to accept a file as a link

If I were making a custom component, then I could create a prop that accepts a file as custom field. Similarly, I would like the built-in Builder text component to accept a file.

Make all Link text inputs "longText"

This one should be super simple to implement. Sometimes, we can get pretty long URLs with dynamic content. It'd be so nice to be able to see the entire URL at once, so could you PLEASE make the Link URL fields be textareas instead of inputs?

Ability for view current draft to live across the entire site according to that snapshot

Similar to how JAMStack deployment services Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, Netflify, etc., have preview deployments on pushes to branches on Github. Preview deployments allow the ability for QA to just test a snapshot of a specific branch that could be...

Copy to Different Space should copy associated Symbols

First, the Copy to a Different Space functionality is really nice to have so I don't have to download/upload JSON, but it'd be even BETTER, if it would either ask or automatically copy any associated Symbols too. I know that may be a huge lift, bu...
