    Design System

    A collection of reusable UI components, patterns, and guidelines that ensure consistency across a product.

    Why it matters

    • Speeds up design and development with ready-to-use components
    • Ensures visual and interaction consistency across the product
    • Makes it easier to onboard new designers and developers

    When to use

    • When building a product that will scale across many screens
    • When multiple designers or teams work on the same product
    • When brand consistency is a priority

    Common mistakes

    • Building a design system too early before patterns emerge
    • Making the system too rigid, preventing necessary customization
    • Not maintaining the system as the product evolves
