🌟 Excited to hear @willkle.in discuss winning over product developers and designers with a design system at the past conference talk! https://gitnation.com/contents/what-makes-a-design-system-win

gitnation.comWhat Makes a Design System Win by Will KleinThank you all for welcoming me here. I am giving a remote talk on testing. The community here is warm and amazing. I hope Marin does well and we hope to see him soon. Six years ago, I joined a big tech company working on improving UX and UI. We released the UX improvement to 60 million users, but overlooked leveraging the design system. Recognizing the importance of the design system, I reached out to the design system manager to address the issue. I proposed solving meeting fatigue and defined my role as an internal developer advocate. Challenges in shipping code for developers and building credibility were discussed. The importance of fostering open communication, supporting users, and expanding workshops was emphasized. Continuing conversations through office hours and release demos improved adoption. Streamlining code updates and celebrating advocacy were key strategies. The speaker now runs a developer tools company called Tool Space.
