Mentimeter presents its new animated illustration system by Loek Vugs, as a playful counterpoint to its ultra clean new brand.
This is a great article on the design process, with multiple examples. Well worth a read.
"Délaissant l’héritage du design d’interaction, orienté vers la recherche d’une adéquation entre forme et fonction, les systèmes de design viennent repositionner le design numérique dans la lignée des chartes graphiques, traitant les artefacts numériques comme des supports de l’identité visuelle de marque."

Today was my first day at Zocdoc as part of their Web Platform team working on #DesignSystems! I'm pretty excited about what we're going to be doing.

When’s the right time to start documenting your design system?
In this article, @Amy_Hupe explains what type of documentation to aim for at each stage of your design system’s lifecycle: https://zeroheight.com/blog/whens-the-right-time-to-start-documenting-your-design-system/
In the process map, visibility created alignment and automation.
In the token mapping, visibility created progress and trust.
In the capability map, visibility created a shared foundation.
That is why mapping matters. It is less about the format (journey, process, capability, or token) and more about creating a picture that people can point to together.
According to an experiment conducted by Figma, designers working with a system completed their task 34% faster than those without it.” #designsystems

Recently completed migrating the Nord Figma Toolkit to Figma Variables 🎨
Makes theme switching much smoother. No more swapping libraries or manual steps. Components automatically pick up the right theme, and designers can compare multiple themes on one page.
