Design systems have vast scopes and complexities—and no two are the same. That’s why establishing a collective vocabulary around design systems is key to unifying a team that can develop and mature a design system for long-term success.
During this event, our team deconstructed the language used to talk about design systems, clearly defined each concept, and reassembled these concepts into a succinct and complete understanding of what design systems are.
Ben Callahan on The Anatomy of a Design System
Ben lays out a framework for understanding a design system’s individual components, the common terms used to discuss these systems, and a roadmap of future considerations for your system.
Kasey Bonifacio on The Anatomy of Design Systems In-The-Wild
Kasey builds upon the terms defined in the previous session with real-life applications to design systems and advice on how to effectively use this knowledge for your work.
