About this book

Design Systems by Alla Kholmatova tries to pin down what makes a design system effective enough to help teams build digital products. Kholmatova writes from her background as a visual and interaction designer, focusing on how a team can make its design process more systematic. The first part of the book lays out the foundations of a design system, which it describes as patterns and practices. The second part of the book turns to practical steps: planning the work, taking an inventory of the interface, building a pattern library, and creating and maintaining design patterns over time.
