Why Design Systems?
Design systems create consistency, speed up development, and improve collaboration between designers and developers.
Start with Foundations
Define your colors, typography, spacing scale, and elevation system first.
Build Components
Create reusable components with clear APIs. Document them thoroughly.
Governance
Decide who can contribute and how. A design system needs stewardship.
Living Documentation
Tools like Storybook make design systems accessible and searchable.
A good design system is never done—it evolves with your product.
