We've put together a list of features that can help you and your team while you're working and collaborating!
Inviting a user to a project
You can invite users to a project from the project dashboard. Click on the "Share" button on the right panel, enter the email address associated with their Zeplin account, and click on the "+" button.
💁♀️ If you have a team workspace and invite a user to a project, who is not a member of that workspace, you'll also need to select a role for that user. You can learn more about workspace roles here: Assigning roles to workspace members
Once you invite a user to your project, they can publish designs, toggle between versions, add comments, view specs and code snippets, download assets, etc. as their roles allow.

Sharing Zeplin links
You can copy links of a project, styleguide, screen, or component from their right panel on both the desktop and Web apps. These share links open the target page on the Web app by default.
To open shared links on the desktop app, click on your profile image at the top right of the Web app and select the "Open desktop app" option. This will open the desktop app in the same location where you're in on the Web app.

Annotations & Comments
With Annotations, you can provide instructions that will remain pinned to a screen or a component—you can document how your designs should behave with descriptive GIFs/videos, reference product requirements, and even share API endpoints.
We collected some helpful articles about Annotations here.
With Comments, you and your teammates are welcome to have a two-way conversation! You can use Comments to ask your teammates questions or share your feedback on a design.
You can add visual elements like images, and GIFs, use Markdown-formatted texts to your comments, organize them using colors, and filter by their status or colors. By resolving the comments on your screen, you can eventually close them. We explained all the details here.
Integrations
Zeplin has many integrations that will help you to facilitate communication within your team; Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Trello, Zapier, Storybook, and Visual Studio Code. You can learn details and how to set up here: Workflow integrations with Zeplin
