Design Systems has become a key part of my everyday work\u2026 And from the surrounding discussions, it is now the case for many people ;)<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After reading Alla Kholmatova\u2019s book<\/a> last year, I was lucky to attend the first European conference<\/a> on the subject in March. All of this strengthened my conviction that, in the future, every brand and every product will use a Design System, simple or comprehensive, strict or loose, mono or cross platforms\u2026<\/p>\n

What is a Design System?<\/h2>\n

I keep hearing various definitions, so let me start by saying what a Design System isn\u2019t: it is not a Sketch library<\/a>, no more than a Style guide or a Pattern Library\u2026 Actually, it\u2019s all of this and so much more!<\/p>\n

\"A Design System is the single source of truth which groups all the elements that will allow the teams to design, realize and develop a product.\"<\/p><\/span><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"\"What<\/a><\/p>\n

So a Design System is not a deliverable, but a set of deliverables. It will evolve constantly with the product, the tools and the new technologies.<\/p>\n

As Jina Anne describes perfectly in this conference<\/a>, the System is composed of tangibles and non-tangibles elements :<\/p>\n
