A design system is a set of standards to manage design at scale by reducing redundancy while creating a shared language and visual consistency across different pages and channels. This talk will go into detail about the history of design systems, what components to include when creating a design system, and lastly various examples of implementation. By the end of the talk, you should have the tools to create your own design system within Shiny/RMarkdown to be used by yourself, your brand, or your company.
