How to Use
Preparation and customization
Before you start, review the included variables and components. Update colors, typography, and spacing to match your project’s brand or style requirements. Customize the component library to reflect your team’s specific needs and patterns.
Group working session
Use the boards and components as your foundation. Apply variables to new components, experiment with token-driven updates, and explore how changes propagate across styles and assets. Encourage team members to interact with the system to ensure consistency and adaptability.
Final Steps
Once your system is configured, the finished kit serves as a shared reference and toolkit for your team—keeping design aligned and consistent as work progresses. Over time, it can evolve into a full-fledged design system, ensuring consistency across products while speeding up the design process.
