🧵Thought I'd post just a quick round-up thread of a few recent #designsystems articles I've written in the last few months. (1/6)

🥾In the early stages of design systems, you probably don't have a lot of budget or people, so you bootstrap where you can. Here I talk about how we audited the health of our system manually. (2/6)

📊 After the initial build phase of a design system, getting adoption is the next big hurdle. We automated a lot of our metrics here, and I talk about that process in this piece. (3/6)

🎨 As I'd been talking about Design Tokens a lot in these pieces, I wrote a quick beginners guide to help people get started, with a bunch of useful resources linked at the end. (4/6)

⚠️ And after talking about a lot of the areas that I think myself and our Design Systems team had done well, I got introspective and collected a few things that didn't go so well. (5/6)
