Each component is documented to show its various states, accessibility and usage examples. The architecture of each component as well its its development props are also provided if required.

  • Prototypes & Example Usage

    An interactive prototype that demonstrates how design system components are implemented into real UI as well as how they interact when being engaged. The prototype behaves as a functional guide for all stakeholders of the product such as other designers, developers, and product managers to help establish a unilateral understanding of how the system should be used.

  • Tokens & Styles

    Building out the system using tokens by assigned colours semantical to their functions and creating distinct and logical naming conventions to ensure consistency across your product. Tokens are beneficial because they allow for: Scalability – Easily update design elements across multiple platforms. Consistency – Ensures a unified look and feel. Theming Support – Enables dark mode, brand variations, or accessibility adjustments. Developer-Friendly – Works well with code by integrating directly into CSS variables or token management tools like Style Dictionary.
