Design systems aren’t one-and-done—they’re living products that support other products.
They need care: ongoing iteration, collaboration across teams, and a clear purpose.
How do you keep yours evolving without becoming overwhelming?

It’s wild to think there was a time when the tech world, though not exclusively, treated everything Elon did like it was pure genius. Even though the guy’s basically a grifting nazi.

Design systems should make our lives easier, but do they?

What’s been your biggest challenge (or win) using one? Docs, flexibility, something else?

Curious to hear what helps (or hinders) your workflow! #DesignSystems #ProductDesign

Stakeholder: Why do we need a design system?

Practitioner: For consistency—and sanity.

Stakeholder: Does it save time?

Practitioner: Yep. Less button debates, more real work like fixing Comic Sans.

Stakeholder: Will people use it?

Practitioner: Not at first. Then: chaos, panic… then adoption.
