How do you work with developers? I'm working in a project where I'm the only designer and we are using Jira to do the sprints and track our tasks.
I design everything using Sketch and I do it like this:
Create a Page for each 'section' that we are going to have (ie. Home, Products, Detail, etc)
Create an Artboard for each 'state' (Dashboard, Element hover, Element selected, etc) and each 'size' (1.25x, Desktop, Tablet, Mobile)
Then I want to share everything using InVision but here's where I get to the first problem. To do the Sketch + InVision integration I will need to have a file for each 'size' that I want (right?). I think that with Sketch Libraries this is going to be 'easy', but still, not sure if this is the best approach.
I send all the views to Zeplin so developers could have the specs and I post the link to Zeplin on Jira.
This is my current flow, do you do something similar or there's something I'm doing different?

Usage
Access designs you’re working on
The Zeplin sidebar in Visual Studio Code lets you access the designs you’re actively working on.
Get started by adding a project. Once you add one, all the screens and components in the project will be listed in the sidebar. You can quickly open each screen or component in Zeplin by clicking the “Open in Zeplin” icon in each row. Similar to adding projects, you can also add styleguides and access all their components.
You can also pin screens or components you frequently visit, and they will be listed under the “Pinned” panel.
Follow designs changes
The Zeplin sidebar lets you to see which designs have been updated since you last visited. Once you add a project, Zeplin will list changes to screens and components under the “Activity” panel.
Open Jira issues
Using Zeplin for Jira, you can attach Zeplin resources to Jira issues. This enables two-way collaboration—when you’re viewing a design in Zeplin, you can open the related Jira issue.
The Zeplin sidebar lets you view which resources are attached to a Jira issue by displaying a Jira icon in the row, and clicking the icon opens the Jira issue directly. Coupled with the “Pinned” panel, you can quickly access Jira issues of designs you frequently visit.
Manage Connected Components configuration
Zeplin Jira Integration
Connected Components in Zeplin lets you access components in your codebase directly on designs in Zeplin, with links to Storybook, GitHub and any other source of documentation based on your workflow. 🧩
