Summary

Each product had their own version of a design language. They looked & felt almost the same but there were endless inconsistencies with designs. Most of the time & effort was taken up by aligning the front-end UI to the Figma designs for each project.

We needed to create a dynamic design system in Figma & in code that could achieve design parity with production code & work well with emerging generative AI workflows.

We built Figma libraries with easy-to-use components & a developer UIKit to implement using component tokens. We also refactored the product designs to use the design system, creating clean working files with reusable patterns

Over 3 years, I & my team were able to create an accessible design system with a dynamic, token-powered core that connected directly to the Figma API to achieve design parity with production code. Making it easy to build consistent digital experiences across every product.
