Patterns Day 2019 - Varya Stepanova

On This Page:

A practical guide to building your design system infrastructure

In Varya’s talk for Patterns Day 2019 they discussed a practical way of applying technologies like React with your design system.

What is Design Systems?

Often it is termed as purely component libraries, for Varya it means:

shared practices (like component libraries and documentation).
tools (for developers and designers to keep a standardised design system).
processes.
community.

To React or Not React?

React Styleguidist and Storybook are seen as things for React Libraries, great tools that can have a component playground and also be used as a documentation site.
Yet, they can also be used for not just React.
With Styleguidist, you can create the component by adding the HTML in a markdown file for the component.
